Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Devon Integrated Care Board has extended a contract previously awarded to Psychiatry UK Ltd for Adult Autism Assessment Services, with modifications that include the addition of ADHD assessment and treatment services. This contract, under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR), falls within the healthcare services industry category and will run until 31 May 2028, with an optional extension to 31 March 2030. The services will be delivered in the UKK4 region, aligning with standards set by the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The procurement stage is an update to an existing award, with the procurement method described as an 'Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition,' highlighting the tailored approach that reflects the healthcare needs identified by NHS Devon ICB.

This contract presents a unique growth opportunity for businesses specialising in healthcare services, particularly those able to demonstrate expertise in the delivery of autism and ADHD assessments. Providers that could offer exceptional services in psychiatric or psychological evaluations within Devon's healthcare landscape would be well-suited to compete for participation in future similar contracts. Businesses with capabilities to deliver under the 'Patient Choice' and 'activity-based payment' models are encouraged to align their offerings with the quality and cost criteria favoured by NHS organisations, fostering potential long-term collaborations within the public healthcare sector.
