The awarding of this contract is subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award. The publication of this notice marks the start of the standstill period. Representations by providers must be made to decision makers by midnight on 8th January 2026.\nAward decision makers are: Operational Lead for Dental Services and an appropriately qualified Dental Practitioner.\nRepresentations should be sent via email to: Christopher.sherwood@nhs.net\nAward decision makers are: Director of Dental \u0026 Planned Care Services \u0026 Operational Lead Dental Services.\nThis contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award under the PSR.\nThere were no conflicts of interest.\nThe decision to continue with the current provider is based on a clear assessment of quality, innovation and value for money in line with the Provider Selection Regime. The provider has consistently demonstrated the ability to deliver a high-quality, patient-centred service, with strong adherence to recognised quality and regulatory standards including ISO, MHRA, MDR and GDC requirements. Established processes are in place to ensure ongoing service improvement, patient safety and timely delivery, supported by regular contract review meetings and a sustained zero-complaints history.\nThe service model offers proven innovation through the use of dedicated dental technicians, enabling faster access to appliances, improved patient outcomes and reduced reliance on dental officer time. This approach has delivered consistently high patient satisfaction levels and measurable service benefits over the life of the contract.\nIn terms of value, the current arrangement represents a cost-effective solution when compared to alternative delivery models, remaining within agreed budgets and providing demonstrable financial efficiencies. The provider has delivered the service within the approved financial envelope for the duration of the contract, offering stability, continuity and value for money. On this basis, the continuation of the current provider is considered to be the most appropriate option to meet service, quality and financial requirements.",
