    "description": "NHS Gloucestershire Integrated Care Board (GICB) sought providers who have the capability and capacity to deliver Dental Services  in Gloucester.\nFundamentally this opportunity seeks to increase access to NHS dentistry in a part of the county where deprivation is greatest by working in partnership to commission a new bespoke primary care Dental Access Centre facility in a fit for purpose environment.\nGICB\u0027s vision for this service is to increase primary care dental access in a Core20 area and begin to address oral health inequalities. This service will provide urgent care and stabilisation, as well as offering routine treatment to a cohort of patients who are both poorly catered for under the existing high street model, and who are disproportionately affected with oral pain and diseases, which negatively affects their health and wellbeing.\n\u2022\tThe contract will be a Personal Dental Services (PDS) contract to deliver a Dental Access Centre in Gloucester.  Premises are located at 1st Floor, Quayside House, Quayside Street, Gloucester, GL1 2TZ\n\u2022\tThe premises are mandated and owned and leased by Gloucestershire County Council (GCC). The successful provider will need to secure a lease with GCC for the duration of the PDS contract term.\n\u2022\tA draft Heads of Terms was included in the Invitation to Tender (ITT) pack which set out the expected terms and conditions between the owner of the building and the service provider.  \n\u2022\tConstruction work has been undertaken on behalf of GCC, and floor plans and room data sheets were included in the ITT pack to inform potential bidders about the premises and what is provided as part of the building fit out.  \n\u2022\tThe successful provider will need to provide any additional fit out and equipment to deliver the services.  It will also be expected to fund associated recurrent revenue costs, for example servicing and maintenance; rent and rates; cleaning and lighting.\n\u2022\tThe premises will have space for up to 7 dental chairs.\n\u2022\tThere is an expectation that the provider is or becomes a postgraduate training practice and hosts foundation dentists. \n\u2022\tFunding for hosting foundation dentists is awarded and administered by NHS Workforce Training and Education (NHS WTE) and the successful provider will be expected to apply to NHS WTE for funding.\n\u2022\tThe PDS contract term will be for an initial term of 10 years, with an option to extend for any period up to a further 5 years, and then for a further 5 years, at the sole discretion of the Commissioner. \n\u2022\tRental payment and services are currently scheduled to commence on 1st July 2026. \n\u2022\tService must commence no later than 6 months after contract award, unless there is an agreement with the Commissioner to extend the mobilisation period.\n\u2022\tThe contract term and service payments will start on the service commencement date. \n\u2022\tThe total contract value excluding extensions is \u00a312,000,000, and \u00a324,000,000 including extensions.\n\u2022\tThe successful provider will need to deliver urgent care, stabilisation and routine care as part of the contract.\n\u2022\tFollowing discussion and agreement with the commissioner, the successful provider may offer private treatment from the same premises however this must not be at the detriment of NHS patients or the provider\u0027s delivery of the PDS contract.\n\u2022\tTUPE was not applicable for this procurement process. \nThis is a new service to be delivered by a new provider.\nThis notice serves as an intention to award a contract under the competitive process of the Provider Selection Regime (PSR).\nThis procurement has been carried out by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioner.",
