## Summary

NHS West and North London Integrated Care Board commissioned primary care community dental services for children and adults with special care needs, accessed by referral. The work covers dental treatment at community clinics and hospital sites across Edmonton, Enfield and north London, including Chase Farm Hospital, St Ann’s Hospital, Kentish Town Health Centre and Finsbury Health Centre. This is a community dental care service rather than a general dental practice supply contract. It is relevant to providers able to deliver referral-based care for paediatric and adult special care patients across the named locations.

The procurement is at the award stage: Whittington Health NHS Trust was selected, and the contract is recorded as active. The buyer’s description calls this an intention to award under the Provider Selection Regime Direct Award Process C and says the award is subject to a standstill; it also states that formal award has not yet occurred. The contract was signed on 28 September 2026. Its stated term is five years from 1 April 2027, with an optional five-year extension at the authority’s discretion, ending on 31 March 2037 if extended or 31 March 2032 otherwise. The stated contract value is £63,974,311, approximate and based on annual DDRB uplifts. Assessment weighted access, health inequalities and choice at 30%, quality and innovation at 25%, value at 20%, integration and sustainability at 15%, and social value at 10%; price was not assessed.

This award shows that the buyer purchases substantial, geographically distributed community dental provision for children and adults requiring special care, with access through referral. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to demonstrate safe, high-quality clinical delivery across community and hospital settings, with the capacity to serve multiple sites and patient groups. The assessment gives particular importance to improving access, reducing health inequalities and facilitating choice, alongside quality, innovation, value, integration, collaboration, service sustainability and social value. The selected provider passed the basic selection and exclusion checks and met the required standard against all five weighted criteria. Suppliers with established community dental services and strong arrangements for referral access, coordination across services and sustainable delivery would be well placed to meet this buyer’s requirement.
