Summary of the contracting process

The NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board (WYICB) has recently awarded the contract for the Short-Term Community Beds Service in Leeds as part of the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) award process. This service falls under the health services industry category and aims to provide bedded rehabilitation for individuals needing intermediate care. The contract was formally awarded following the standstill period ending on 5 March 2026, with a contract term beginning on 1 July 2026 and concluding on 30 June 2036. The procurement was conducted through an open procedure, and the process is subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, not the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.

This procurement is a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those with expertise in rehabilitation and community care. The contract promises substantial growth, with an investment amount of £176 million, making it appealing for larger healthcare providers capable of managing comprehensive rehabilitation services. The strategic emphasis on integrated care offers chances for providers to collaborate in evolving intermediate care approaches in Leeds, fostering innovation and potentially expanding service offerings to further support the 'Home First' journey. As such, entities with a proven capacity for integrating care solutions and delivering high-quality outcomes in community settings would be well-suited to compete. Leeds Community Healthcare NHS Trust has been actively involved as the successful supplier.

Notice Title

NHS WYICB - Short-Term Community Beds Service

Notice Description

NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board (WYICB) is commissioning a Short-Term Community Beds Service in Leeds.

Lot Information

Lot 1

The short-term community beds will provide a rehabilitation, recovery, and assessment service for the adult population of Leeds who are unable to be supported at home. The service will provide some 'step up' from community settings, as well as services for people on discharge. The service will support people to reach the immediate rehabilitation goals that need 24-hour care before being transferred to either continue their recovery in their own home with further services or leaving the short-term bed to a long-term care setting. The beds will also offer admission on an ad hoc basis (not expected to be more than 2 at any one time and on an infrequent basis) to people supported by the Community Neurorehabilitation Service if they need an intervention that cannot be provided in their usual place of residence.

The specification sets out the detailed requirements for future Short-term Community Beds in the way we currently anticipate them to be provided from July 2026 and onwards. However, over the lifetime of the contract, the Partnership wishes to further develop an increasingly integrated intermediate care offer in Leeds with even greater emphasis on care at home. The provider, as a valued system partner, will be expected to be part of that work and to mutually agree service developments that will support the Home First journey. This will enable WYICB to ensure that people are supported with an integrated offer, using a common language and approach to rehabilitation and reablement and maximising the opportunities offered by integrated workforce, systems, and processes.

Renewal: Option to extend for up to 2 years
