Summary of the contracting process

The NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board, located in Wakefield, has recently confirmed a contract award under the Provider Selection Regime for the Community Wellbeing Support Service and SMI-LE. The contract, awarded to Mind in Bradford, a well-established SME in the healthcare sector, will run from April 1, 2026, to March 31, 2029, with an estimated value of £3,305,367.61. This tender falls under the health services industry category, focusing on non-statutory community mental health services. The procurement process was conducted without prior publication due to the continuity of services provided by the existing supplier, as outlined in the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. Relevant representations had to be submitted by January 12, 2026, marking the culmination of the standstill period within this process.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those with experience in providing community mental health support. The contract's scale and requirements make it most suitable for entities capable of managing comprehensive mental health programmes, including activities such as community companionship and wellbeing support services. While the contract has been awarded to an existing provider, similar tenders may arise for companies ready to demonstrate the ability to maintain service standards and meet NHS expectations. Businesses interested in future opportunities should establish robust networks within the healthcare sector and maintain awareness of procurement regulations to improve their chances of capitalising on upcoming contracts.
