Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Shared Business Services is seeking to modify the existing community services contract for the expansion of Children's Therapies, specifically Speech and Language Therapy and Occupational Therapy, in Hounslow, London. This procurement process is at the award stage, with the awarded contract valued at £3,141,671. The contract period is set to commence on 1st April 2019 and will run until 31st March 2020, following the tender period which concluded on 4th March 2019. The industry category involved is health services, which encompasses essential therapy support for children and young people aged 0-18 with various developmental and communication difficulties.

This modification offers significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in health services and therapy provisions for children. Companies that provide therapeutic services, especially those with experience in community health initiatives or paediatric care, would be well-positioned to participate in future tenders. The focus on improving health outcomes and the provision of services tailored to children with Education, Health and Care Plans creates a niche market for SMEs and specialised service providers aiming to enhance their portfolio in the healthcare sector.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Modification of Community Services to increase Children's Therapies Capacity

Notice Description

Expansion of an existing community based therapy service for children and young people age 0-18 within Hounslow. This includes the provision of Speech and Language Therapy (SLT), which supports children who experience speech, language and communication difficulties, and dysphagia (difficulty with swallowing), and Occupational Therapy (OT), for children who have developmental difficulties, sensory processing difficulties, and physical or neurological disabilities, to engage with activities and functional communication in their daily lives. The service is provided in a range of settings to best meet the needs of the child, including clinic, school and home. The service plays a role in improving health outcomes for children as well as enabling them to access education. The service is being expanded to include the provision of therapy to children with Education, Health and Care Plans in specialist school settings. Additional information: The existing community services contract worth PS24m is being modified from 5th April 2019 to increase its capacity in regard to the provision of Speech and Language Therapy and Occupational Therapy Services to children and young people with Education, Health and Care Plans in specialist school settings. Recognising its obligations and responsibilities under the NHS (Procurement Patient Choice and Competition)(No.2) Regulations 2013, the CCG has assessed the most appropriate contractual solution will be to secure this capacity through this existing community services contract, avoiding duplication of costs to the CCG and to achieve a sustainable, value for money provision of services, which will assure the safest continuity of service provision. The value of the increased modification will be PS732,851.
