## Summary

NHS Kent and Medway Integrated Care Board is buying a GP-led urgent treatment centre service in Kent, delivered in Faversham. The provider is to run a fully integrated service bringing minor illness and minor injury care together as one service. This is healthcare service provision, rather than a purchase of equipment or construction work. The centre is intended to maintain continuity of urgent treatment while the ICB reviews urgent and emergency care and develops its future treatment-centre and neighbourhood health model. The work is therefore relevant to providers able to operate or support a local, GP-led urgent care service that combines assessment and treatment for minor illnesses and injuries.

The contracting process records Faversham Medical Centre as the selected supplier, with an active award and an active contract. The contract was signed on 22 October 2026 and is valued at £2,581,000. The proposed service contract runs for one year, ending on 30 November 2027, with a six-month break clause and an option to extend for a further 12 months. The ICB used a Provider Selection Regime Direct Award C route, without a prior competition. Its stated evaluation basis was whether the existing provider was meeting the original contract and was likely to meet the proposed contract to a sufficient standard; that criterion carried 100% of the assessment. The intention-to-award description set 2 November 2026 as the deadline for provider representations.

For suppliers considering comparable future work for this ICB, the requirement demonstrates demand for a joined-up, GP-led service covering both minor illness and minor injury care in Faversham. A credible provider would need the clinical capability and operational capacity to deliver both parts as one integrated urgent treatment service, and to maintain continuity while the commissioning model is reviewed. The stated selection rationale favoured an incumbent able to show that it was satisfying its existing contract and could deliver the replacement service to a sufficient standard. Evidence of dependable performance against service requirements, together with the ability to sustain local provision and adapt to a developing urgent-care and neighbourhood-health model, would therefore be commercially relevant. The route used was a direct selection under the Provider Selection Regime, rather than an open competition.
