Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Ambulance Service NHS Trust is inviting tenders for the provision of Counselling and Psychological Services for its staff. This procurement is being conducted under the competitive process of the Provider Selection Regime. The contract, which falls under the health services category, has a projected start date of 17 January 2025 and an end date for tender submissions on 17 February 2025. The contract term is set for 2 years with a potential extension of an additional 2 years, making the maximum duration 4 years. The estimated total value of the contract, excluding VAT, has recently been revised to £2,000,000. These services will be based in London, with a strong emphasis on providing high-quality, clinically led support.

This tender provides a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in health and counselling services to grow and make a substantial impact within the public health sector. The increased focus on independent and high-quality services indicates a demand for providers with a proven track record in delivering professional, comprehensive psychological support. Organisations with an annual turnover of at least £750,000 and the technical capacity as detailed in the invitation to tender documents are well-suited to compete. Successful providers may also have the chance to extend their services to other members of the Southern Ambulance Services Collaboration, potentially increasing the contract’s value up to £7,500,000 over its lifetime.
