Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process being highlighted involves a contract modification notice under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, specifically focusing on the continuing healthcare services in Hertfordshire. The contracting authority is the NHS Hertfordshire and West Essex Integrated Care Board, located in Hemel Hempstead, UKH23 region. The contract, titled "Brainkind - Stagenhoe Park", falls under the health services category and is valued at an estimated £1,880,840 for the period from 2025 to 2026, with a potential extension value reaching £3,761,680. The procurement stage is in the award and contract update phase, following a direct award process as of January 2026. The initial contract period is slated from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2027, designed for service provision continuity, adjusting its value according to the dynamic local population needs.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses operating within the health services industry, particularly those specialising in continuing healthcare provision. The contract's adaptation to local demographic demands and its considerable financial scope creates vast room for businesses to expand their services and presence in Hertfordshire. Suppliers, like small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with a track record in healthcare, especially those well-versed in NHS contractual requirements, are well-positioned to compete successfully for similar opportunities or future extensions. Given the fixed-term structure and potential for financial uplift based on local tariffs, companies that can efficiently scale and adapt to fluctuating user needs will find this contract beneficial to their strategic growth objectives.
