Summary of the contracting process

The Home Office has completed a contract award for the "MindSpring Psycho-Education Programme - Local Delivery Partner" in Liverpool. This procurement process, initiated as a below-threshold direct award, was executed without competition following a focused market engagement. The work will be delivered by Primary Care 24 (Merseyside) Ltd. Despite some interest from other organisations, only Primary Care 24 was suited to meet the specific requirements of the MindSpring programme. The contract, falling under the services category, will run from 28th July 2025 to 5th April 2026. The final award stage is pending, with the future contract signature scheduled by 25th July 2025, ensuring administrative social services are the focus in the region UKD72.

This tender represents an opportunity for businesses involved in psycho-education and administrative social services, particularly those with a focus in the Liverpool area, to understand the specific demands within the public sector. Given the direct award process used here, other organisations can glean the importance of aligning closely with the specified programme requirements when aiming to secure such contracts. Small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as voluntary, community, and social enterprises, may also take note of the procurement process details, which could inform their strategic engagement in future bids.
