Summary of the contracting process

The MID CHESHIRE HOSPITALS NHS FOUNDATION TRUST has awarded a contract for the "Specialist Weight Management Service - CBT," focusing on health services in Cheshire East and West. This procurement is classified under CPV code 85100000 and falls under the services category. The procurement process was conducted through a Provider Selection Regime (PSR), bypassing the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, and used a direct award process outlined by the Health Care Services Regulations 2023. The contract was awarded to Cheshire and Wirral Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, with a contract period from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026, valued at £40,455. The official award was confirmed on 9th June 2025.

This contract offers substantial opportunities for businesses involved in health services, especially those specialising in psychological support and community health solutions. The specific requirement for supporting patients in a specialist weight management pathway indicates a niche service, making it an attractive prospect for organisations experienced in providing cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and related health services. Large-scale providers that can quickly adapt to the operational needs of NHS frameworks and have a robust presence in the UK, particularly in the North West, would find this tender particularly relevant for expanding their service offerings and client base in the public health sector.
