## Summary

NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership has awarded a contract for the Provision of Dental Services for BCUHB to Coal & Diamond Ltd. The tender, which went through an open procedure, was part of the health industry category and aimed to address underserved dental service areas across North Wales. This contract, comprising an annual budget of approximately £1.25 million for dental services, was officially signed on 21 August 2024, with key priority areas including Dwyfor, Meirionnydd, Anglesey, Conwy, Betws-y-Coed, Flintshire, Abergele/Pensarn, Deeside, Llandudno, and Rhyl. Specific consideration will be given to bids that improve access to dental care in these areas.

This award provides significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises specialising in dental services. Coal & Diamond Ltd., identified as an SME, demonstrated a satisfactory proposal to meet NHS commitment levels while also retaining the flexibility to offer private services. Businesses in the dental industry that can provide quality services in underserved areas could greatly benefit from this type of contract, contributing to both business growth and improved community health outcomes. Prospective bidders for similar tenders should focus on demonstrating capacity to meet NHS levels and expanding access in priority areas to enhance their competitiveness.

## Notice

The Health Board is seeking to commission in the region of 1,250,000 of dental services on an annual basis. This could be opening a new practice in an underserved area, or additional activity in an existing practice. All qualifying bids will be considered, however, preference will be given to the award of those bids evaluated as satisfactory or better and demonstrating the provision of additional access to patients in the following priority areas: Dwyfor, Meirionnydd, Anglesey, Conwy, Betws y Coed, Flintshire, Abergele/Pensarn, Deeside, Llandudno, Rhyl. The Health Board may commission more or less service from each area depending on the quality of bids it receives. The Health Board may commission services from areas not listed in the above list if insufficient satisfactory bids are received for its priority areas. The Health Board reserves the right not to commission the full level of service outlined in the tender if it does not receive sufficient satisfactory bids within the priority areas. The contracted provider is free to offer private services but it is expected that NHS commitment will be maintained at the contracted level and that NHS provision remains the significant proportion of the contractor's total workload. Please see Information for Bidders document for further information.
