NHS South Yorkshire ICB is commissioning Lundwood Medical Centre to provide locally enhanced services (additional healthcare services beyond standard GP care) to the Barnsley population for one year from April 2026 to March 2027. This is a renewal of an existing contract with the current provider, awarded through a direct award process rather than open competition.
Requirements
- Must be an existing approved provider (this contract is not open to new bidders)
- Must be capable of delivering integrated primary care services aligned with NHS South Yorkshire ICB's wider primary care strategy
- Must comply with NHS contracting standards and governance requirements
- Must demonstrate ability to serve the Barnsley population
- Must be able to deliver services on a mixed payment basis (block funding and/or activity-based payments depending on the specific service)
Key Tasks & Deliverables
- Deliver locally enhanced services tailored to Barnsley population needs integrated with existing primary care contracts
- Provide services under a mixed funding model where some services receive fixed block payments and others are paid based on activity (number of patients seen or treatments provided)
- Maintain service continuity from 1 April 2026 through 31 March 2027
How to Read This Tender
- 1Understand that 'Locally Enhanced Services' (LCS) means additional services beyond routine GP appointments — these might include minor illness treatment, sexual health services, or long-term condition management; check the full tender for which specific services Lundwood must deliver
- 2Note the payment structure is mixed: some services will be paid as a fixed monthly fee (block), others based on how many patients you treat (activity) — you'll need to forecast both to calculate your actual income
- 3This is a direct award to an existing provider, so if you're not already the current provider, you likely cannot bid; only existing approved providers can apply
- 4The contract value is not stated because it depends on actual activity levels and the mix of block versus activity payments — ask the NHS for historical activity data and payment information from the current contract
- 5One-year contracts are common in NHS primary care; plan accordingly for staffing and resources, and start discussions about renewal or re-procurement 3-4 months before March 2027
Tips for Small Businesses
- If you're the incumbent provider, prioritise responding quickly — direct awards still require formal acceptance but give you an advantage if you're already delivering the service well
- Request detailed historical data from NHS South Yorkshire ICB on activity levels and payment splits for the past 12 months to build an accurate financial forecast; don't assume the payment mix will stay the same
- Factor in inflation and staffing cost increases for a 2026–2027 contract now; NHS block payments often don't increase with inflation, so build contingency into your bid
