## About this tender

As required under the Provider Selection Regime Regulation 13(5), this is a notice of extension of the existing DPS (now managed under Direct Award B) by a further year until 30th November 2025.

Kent County Council is procuring through Primary Care, the fitting, monitoring, checking,

and removal of intrauterine devices (IUDs), intrauterine systems (IUSs) and sub-dermal

implants (SDIs), collectively known as long-acting reversible contraception (LARC), for

contraceptive purposes only. The Council is aiming to procure a service which is available in

each Kent geographical Primary Care Network area, to ensure access for services

throughout the county.

The service will be provided in primary care settings across Kent, by practitioners who hold

valid and up-to-date Letters of Competence (LoC), as issued by the Faculty of Sexual and

Reproductive Healthcare (FSRH), for the procedures undertaken, or

by potential providers who have suitability to pursue the professional activity, including the

ability to:

- achieve and maintain competence to deliver LARC as specified by the FSRH as part of a

primary care pathway.

- have appropriate treatment rooms and facilities for delivery of LARC as specified by FSRH

latest clinical guidance, within each geographical GP PCN/ neighbourhood quadrant.

- ensure that patients with needs relating to uncomplicated STIs should have their care

managed by appropriately skilled healthcare professionals, as defined by the latest

standards specified by the British Association for Sexual Health and HIV (BASHH).
