Bid Writing for Winning Dental Services Tenders – The Ultimate Guide!

Written by Thornton & Lowe

|

Feb 02, 2023

Winning orthodontic and dental services tenders can feel like pulling teeth.

Valued at over £7.1 billion, the UK dental industry is a lucrative sector for healthcare suppliers to bid and expand services provision. Having mandatory competitive pricing regulated by the British Dental Association’s Units of Dental Activity (UDA), we recognise how difficult it can be to put together winning bids, especially for SMEs. At Thornton and Lowe, we champion SMEs and have compiled this guide, full of expert advice, to help SMEs such as yours write winning dental bids.

What are Dental Service tenders?

Dental contracts fall into 4 broad categories:

General Dental Services (GDS) contracts

  • GDS cover health-related dental works that are not required for cosmetic purposes. Examples include:
  • Tooth cleaning
  • Tooth extraction
  • Wisdom tooth extraction
  • Children’s Dentistry

These are procedures that are necessary for the patient’s health and meet the reasonable needs of the patient. These are services that are bought by the NHS for public use.

Personal Dental Services (PDS) contracts: These are specialist services including:

  • Sedation
  • Domiciliary
  • Urgent treatment
  • Advanced mandatory services
  • PDS contracts typically last 5 years and are open for renewal.

Trust-based contracts: Typically bought for use in emergency dental practices, trust-based dental services are paid for by the Commissioner, rather than by the NHS, and are a needs-based supplement to the GDS procured by the NHS.

PDS Plus: A more recent type of contract targeted at increasing patient engagement with NHS dentistry, these contracts are created with clearer emphasis on improving:

  • Health
  • Service access
  • Service quality

PDS Plus contracts are measured and payment is issued against Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to ensure sufficient levels of service are met by suppliers. The standard KPIs fall under the headings of:

  • Effective Care
  • Health Promotion
  • Patient Experience

Where suppliers fail to meet agreed levels of service delivery, PDS Plus allows the buyer to terminate the agreement and retender the contract.

Orthodontic tenders

Most orthodontic tender opportunities are available through Dynamic Purchasing Systems (DPS). This is an electronic ‘open market’ that gives suppliers the opportunity to join more frequently than traditional methods of procurement. This means that SMEs like yours have more opportunities to expand their network at times that are convenient for you.

DPS are more similar to Frameworks (discussed below) than traditional procurement but provide you with more power and better chances of an award due to there being no limit on listed suppliers.

When bidding for orthodontic tenders, showing best practice/legislative practice is key. The awarding panel will want to see evidence of how these play a role in your service delivery, using past contract examples as proof.

Key professional associations to draw orthodontic best practice guidance include:

  • British Dental Association
  • CODE -the Professional Association for Dental Practice
  • British Association of Dental Nurses
  • Dental Laboratories Association
  • Dental Technologists Association
  • Orthodontic National Group
  • Clinical Dental Technicians Association
  • British Society of Dental Hygiene and Therapy
  • British Association of Dental Therapists

Direct award vs Framework award

Tendering opportunities can take the form of direct awards or frameworks. Direct awards are where the supplier bids for a contract and the buyer chooses who to award to. Typically, unless divided into lots, these opportunities are awarded to 1 supplier and only re-open to tender after the contracted period has lapsed. This means that, whilst the award may be greater, competition can be fiercer and unsuccessful suppliers may have to wait up to 5 years, or as specified per opportunity before they can re-bid.

Frameworks are where the supplier bids for a place on a list of approved suppliers, that framework buyers have to choose from. Framework award doesn’t guarantee contract award, but framework tenders usually have more than 1 awarded supplier and can be a great way to build your brand awareness with the right kinds of buyers. A direct award can be given to framework suppliers, or framework buyers can request suppliers to tender for their contracts.

Where can I find Dental Service Frameworks?

Dental-specific Frameworks benefit suppliers by awarding successful companies placement on a list of approved suppliers. This means that any contracts advertised through the framework will be awarded to at least one of the suppliers on the list. Suppliers are vetted through a tendering process, and placements are typically awarded to the Most Economically Advantageous Tender (MEAT) (keep on reading for more MEAT guidance).

Below are 3 examples of Dental Services Frameworks:

Why should I bid for public-sector dental contracts?

Offering additional payment protection through highly regulated public procurement procedures, winning public sector contracts can afford your SME guaranteed income for the duration of the contract. This is a more secure guarantee than private sector contracts, where there is the constant possibility of the buyer’s company dissolving/breaking contract terms resulting in an unexpected loss of income and work.

Payment assurance is further protected for public contracts as buyers are bound to the Prompt Payment Policy. This ensures that suppliers pay at least 90% of invoices to SMES within 5 days, and 100% within 30 days.

Across the UK, an average of only 10.95% of adults prefer private dentistry. Of these private sector contracts, buyers have the freedom to buy directly from suppliers known to them, or to only inform select suppliers of tender opportunities. This means that if you aren’t in with the right crowd at the right time, you’re in danger of missing out.

Offering increased payment security and a larger volume of services/goods to sell, public sector dental contracts are pitched to the public, in line with the Government’s target to procure 30% of its goods/services from SMEs. This means that if you use the right tools to keep an eye on upcoming opportunities, such as our free-to-use Tender Pipeline, you’ll always be in the right place at the right time.

Are Dental Service contracts right for my SME?

A top tip for companies looking to bid for dental contracts is to make sure that your

service meets the requirements of the specification. We know how exciting it can be to find the perfect opportunity, or how eager you may be to start winning public sector contracts. But, it’s important to remember that a considered and targeted approach will always score more highly than repurposed and generic response.

Tender suitability will always vary between opportunities, but as a general rule of thumb, and to prevent wasting precious company time first consider whether your current service offerings align with the specified requirements. This may include evaluating your service offering, whether the length of the contract/framework aligns with your business plan, and whether you have the capacity to fulfil contract requirements.

Bid writing tips for Dental Services tenders

Writing winning Dental Services bids since 2009, our bid writing experts have compiled 5 common requirements for Dental Services tenders.

  1. Qualifications: Public procurement is tightly regulated to ensure that awarded suppliers provide the highest quality works/services to taxpayers. Contracts are typically awarded in consideration of the ‘MEAT’, meaning that the supplier who can prove that they are the best value for money tends to win the contract. Because of this, there will be minimum qualification standards (that vary between specifications) that your staff/your SME will be required to achieve prior to contracting start if awarded. To give yourself the best chance of an award, ensure that you are up-to-date with Commissioner best practice/legislation and, where necessary, ensure that you would have enough time between contract award and contract start to complete the required training.
  2. Location/social value: Providing public healthcare, your location and ability to serve members of the contract community may prove vital to contract award. You may find that contracts are split into ‘lots’ (more information on frameworks can be found here which are split into geographical regions. Familiarising yourself with the needs of the region(s) to which you can provide dental services, and providing evidencing this within your responses, for example through local statistics, council concerns or solutions to local health-related issues can add value to your bid. You can do this by showing local knowledge, the ability to deliver care in the specified region(s) and committing to local charity initiatives/sustainability pledges of local concern/ regional economic growth. A key thing to remember is that public procurement spends public money, so make sure that your bid reflects the wider positive impact of your services on the public. For more information on social value, check out our blog on the importance of social value.
  3. Patient-focused care: Demonstrate the quality of your service provision through case studies of similar contracts and testimonials from previous clients/patients. Use your bid as an opportunity to show the awarding panel how your service can make a difference to the patients you serve, and back your claims up with data/facts. It is important to remember to have the sources for your data/facts saved and to hand, in case you are asked to provide further evidence.
  4. Clinical governance: Linking to the first tip on qualifications, a common dental tender requirement is that suppliers are Care Quality Commission registered. You can evidence your compliance with governing bodies by informing your policies on best practice/legislation, highlighting your ISO and other related accreditations, and proving you have the correct clinical audit procedures in place.
  5. British Dental Association (BDA) Units of Dental Activity (UDA): Make your bid stand out from your competition as the MEAT by using BDA’s UDA value checker to compare your pricing against local and national competition. Pricing and quality are the bread and butter of contract awards, so check out how your service delivery compares before writing your bid.

Where can I find Dental Service tenders?

All public sector tenders are initially posted on the UK Government’s Contracts Finder and Find a Tender databases. These databases are home to vast numbers of upcoming and live contracts for all sectors. The volume of information on these frameworks can be overwhelming, which is why we recommend using free services such as Tender Pipeline for free contract alerts and business intelligence, giving you the earliest notice of relevant contract opportunities.

Provision of a 12 Month Caretaker Contract to provide General Dental Services in Bolsover, Derbyshire
UK Derby NHS Derby & Derbyshire Integrated Care Board

In Bolsover, Derbyshire, a previous provider held a contract to offer general dental services. However, they have recently chosen to give up this contract, which has raised concerns about the ongoing availability of dental care in the area. An Oral Health Needs Assessment was carried out, revealing significant disparities in dental health, especially among disadvantaged communities. Given the withdrawal of this contract, it is now crucial to establish an interim dental general service contract to fill the service gap and ensure that the residents of Bolsover continue to receive uninterrupted dental care until a long-term solution is identified. Maintaining these services in Bolsover is essential to guarantee that the local population can access dental care without the need to travel elsewhere, ensuring timely access within their own community.<br/><br/>Derby and Derbyshire ICB’s clinical aim for each dental practice is to deliver high quality NHS clinical services defined as: “Patient-centred and value for money primary dental care services, delivered in a safe and effective manner, through a learning environment, which includes the continuing professional development of dentists and other dental professionals”.<br/><br/>There are four key clinical principles that underpin this aim. They are: <br/><br/>• Services should be patient centred.<br/>• Services must be delivered safely and through a learning environment. <br/>• Services must be effective and efficient. <br/>• Services should reflect a preventative ethos and follow current delivering better oral health and associated guidelines.<br/><br/>Please see details below on how to access the procurement documentation.

Procurement for the provision of Primary Care Laboratory(s) to NHS England South West
UK Leeds NHS England South West Region

NHS England (South West Region) is procuring a Primary Care Laboratory ("the Lab"), within the South West region of NHS England. The Lab forms part of a wider Primary Care Digital Experience programme which aims "to transform the human experience of primary care processes, using digital technology and data", seeking to improve the staff and citizen experience of primary care, by testing solutions to the problems identified by the primary care workforce and citizens who interact with primary care. The Lab will be a physical space in which digital technology and digitally-enabled processes in General Practice (GP), Primary Care Networks(PCNs) and wider primary care services, such as dental practices, can be physically tested and piloted, without an impact on the already time and resource pressured primary care workforce. The Lab includes the configuration of a flexible and adaptable yet dedicated space, the provision of IT and 'office' hardware, and established IT software (Windows, Chrome/Edge), and resources (physical ,technical and human) to develop, test, refine, optimise and evaluate digital solutions. For the purposes of this project, 'flexible and adaptable space' means abuilding or area within a building allocated and protected specifically for this project, that can be reconfigured easily using various tools and props to provide different types of 'rooms' that simulate General Practice and wider primary care services. The Lab will form a 'sandbox' environment, in the South West region, in which tacit knowledge from both existing pockets of excellence and digital technology testing will create lessons learnt for best practice techniques of moving innovations into the primary care space. There is potential for more than one space in the South West region with a maximum of three partner organisations (suppliers)supplying a maximum of three labs. The Primary Care Laboratory will be hosted by the partner organisation (supplier) who will manage the physical infrastructure, and services to run and maintain the infrastructure. The intention is to award the contract early June 2023, with the Laboratory(s) operational by early autumn 2023.For the avoidance of doubt the maximum value of this procurement will be £1,850,000 exc. VAT or £2,220,000 inc. VAT to cover all 3 Lots.Interested providers will be able to view this opportunity via the live opportunities list on the 'Health Family' e-procurement system, Atamis.

Statistical Analysis of Recruitment
UK Leeds Health Education England

HEE are seeking to procure a provider organisation, to conduct a robust and relevant analysis of recruitment data to date and over the course of the next three years.<br/><br/>Core themes:<br/><br/>Within the scope of this work the following themes will need to shape analysis and form the structure of regular reporting:<br/><br/>Digital vs traditional face-to-face methods:<br/><br/>- Fairness of recruitment based on protected characteristics<br/>- Fairness of recruitment based on country of primary qualification <br/>- How do face-to-face and digital methods compare in their effectiveness of identifying the most suitable applicants that will continue to be successful in the training programme they have been appointed to?<br/>- How has applicant behaviour changed?<br/>- Are applicants applying for training programmes coming through traditional training routes – how has the dynamics changed. For example, are Foundation trainees progressing straight into core training? Are Core Surgical Trainees progressing directly into higher surgical training, or are these posts being awarded by applicants who have applied through a different route?<br/>- Does level of experience have an impact on fairness and suitability of different recruitment methods (i.e. is digital recruitment fairer in R2 or R1)<br/>- Does one type of recruitment (i.e Digital vs Traditional) work better for certain staff groups over others. I.e. Is digital recruitment more effective in Dental recruitment vs Pharmacy recruitment<br/><br/>HEE are looking to commission an external supplier to conduct statistical analysis of recruitment data with the vision that detailed information associated with key areas of recruitment can be derived from all accessible historic, current and future data.<br/>The successful provider will deliver a number of key reports and supporting infographics with in-depth information across the following areas, across the three-year period:<br/>1. Assessment of the reliability and validity of the selection methods and tools used by the various specialities.<br/><br/>2. Evaluation of recruitment outcomes against widening participation and equality and diversity policies. For example, identifying if there is any discrimination or bias around any protected characteristics (e.g. gender, ethnicity, nationality).<br/><br/>3. Evaluation of outcomes between historical methods of assessment and Covid-19 contingency recruitment methods.<br/>.<br/>4. Reviewing the success of UK trainees, and career progression and continuity, in the selection process. For example, foundation trainees to core training or core trainees to higher training.<br/><br/>5. The predictive validity of assessments for future training progression.<br/><br/>It is expected that detailed reports for the themes outlined above will be provided for each of the recruitment rounds listed below for each year of the contract.<br/><br/>- Medical Round 1<br/>- Medical Round 2<br/>- Medical Round 3<br/>- Dental Round 1<br/>- Foundation Pharmacy<br/>- Healthcare Science<br/><br/>The successful provider will also be expected to provide in depth analysis of key themes across data supplied for all years of the project, as well as historic data. For example, a comparison between year 1 ‘data’ and year 2 ‘data’ for the ‘evaluation of recruitment outcomes against widening participation and equality and diversity policies.’ <br/><br/>Analysis should also be conducted to identify trends between different rounds within the same recruitment years as well as identifying any similarities between the different staff groups.
