DPS Project
To ensure the PDPS can be managed efficiently while also being sensitive to local
commissioner (and provider)needs it is divided into the following two Lots
Lot 1 - Substantive APMS Contracts
Lot 2 - GP Caretaker Contracts
The PDPS is further broken down into geographical sub-Lots (7 sub-Lots in line with
the 7 NHSEI regional areas). GP Providers can apply to be an approved APMS and/or
caretaker provider in one or more of the statedLots and Sub-Lots.
Application on to the approved provider list does not commit providers to provide APMS
services, nor does it guarantee a provider will be awarded a contract through the PDPS, but
it does mean providers will be able to bid when local needs arise.
Applications to join the PDPS will be managed in consecutive "Rounds". These Rounds
have specific start and end dates by which applications must be submitted. If a provider
misses the deadline to submit an application for a particular Round, they can submit their
application for evaluation as part of the next Round.
Round 10 Start : 28.09.2020 End: 23.10.2020
Round 11 Start : 26.10.2020 End: 20.11.2020
Round 12 Start : 23.11.2020 End: 18.12.2020
