BNSSG ICB is seeking input from interested organisations to take part in a pre-procurement Market Engagement exercise in relation to the re-procurement of these contracts. The ICB intends to test the market, using the process to gain valuable insights to inform their commissioning intentions. The intelligence gathered during this exercise will be used to refine the service specification and to understand the resources required to fulfil the contracts in the two areas.

There is excellent provider collaboration within each of the respective Primary Care Networks, along with strong support from the GP Collaborative Board who bring together all general practices within BNSSG supported by One Care (the GP federation) and Avon Local Medical Committee (LMC), as well as BrisDoc, the out-of-hours GP service provider.

We are looking for providers who are passionate about working with diverse communities, and are motivated by serving these populations.

We are considering offering the contracts on an 8 year contract with an option to extend for up to 2 years (total duration of 10 years). ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** planned - **CPV codes:** 85121100 - **Delivery regions:** UKK - **Description:** The full scope of the service can be found in the draft service specification available.
