UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Birmingham Community Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust has concluded the procurement process titled "Strategic Partnership - Birmingham Citizens" in the services industry category. The process, initiated as a tender, has reached the award stage, finalised on 29th September 2025. The procurement was conducted directly, below the threshold without competition, and resulted in an active contract with Birmingham Citizens, effective from 20th August 2025 to 19th August 2026. The contract, valued at £10,000 with a gross amount of £12,000, supports the Trust's membership in Birmingham Citizens and includes access to training throughout the year. The procurement activities are related to the region of Birmingham, UKG31.

This tender presents an opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) involved in subscription services within the services industry to engage with the public sector. Companies that specialise in providing services to public bodies, particularly those that can offer training and membership benefits, stand to benefit from such strategic partnerships. Given the trust's need to enhance its workforce's capabilities and community engagement, businesses that can deliver innovative and impactful training solutions would be well-suited to compete in similar future procurements.
