Summary of the contracting process

The NHS North Central London Integrated Care Board, a body governed by public law, based in London, has issued an intention to award notice for a Community Brain Injury Service under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR). This procurement, which is classified under community health services, follows a direct award process without prior publication. The contract, valued at £52,666.50 annually, is set to commence on 1st April 2026 and conclude on 31st March 2027. The standstill period will end on 24th February 2026, and representations by interested providers should be submitted by this date. The procurement process is awarded to Headway East London, an SME, which aligns with key criteria focusing on quality, value, integration, collaboration, service sustainability, and social value, achieving an overall score of 87.5% out of 100%. The decision to award was finalised on 11th December 2025.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in community health services, particularly those with expertise in brain rehabilitation. Although the contract is set to be awarded to an existing provider, such tenders can present future possibilities for businesses that demonstrate innovation, service integration, and commitment to reducing health inequalities. Companies with strong credentials in delivering quality healthcare services, especially those that are small or medium-sized enterprises, could benefit from similar procurement opportunities by showcasing capabilities in collaboration, improving service access, and delivering social value. Engaging with these processes can also provide businesses with valuable insights and networking opportunities within the NHS framework.
