Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust is overseeing a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intention to award notice concerning psychosocial services at HMP ISIS. This process falls under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The contract's standstill period commences the day following the publication of this notice on 7th October 2025, with representations by providers due by 20th October 2025. Despite the award process being active, the contract has not yet been formally awarded. The procurement method used is limited, with no prior publication of a call for competition, indicating a specific economic operator is required due to technical reasons, a rationale acceptable within the procurement framework.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses within the counselling services sector, particularly those specialising in psychosocial support. The contract, valued at approximately £4,070,781, is well-suited for large companies like CHANGE GROW LIVE LIMITED (CGL), who are noted participants. Companies with expertise in delivering targeted psychological services in correctional environments can find growth prospects through such specialised government contracts. The nature of the service and the procurement method points towards a requirement for highly specialised knowledge and experience, favouring established firms with a proven track record in similar settings.
