Summary of the contracting process

The NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board is undertaking a procurement process titled "Children’s Trauma Therapy Service," focusing on community health services in Bradford District and Craven Health and Care Partnership. The contract aims to provide specialised trauma and attachment-focused psychotherapy for young people aged 4-18 years who have experienced serious trauma or attachment issues. Although the tender process is governed by the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 and falls outside the scope of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, a Standstill Period has been initiated. Providers were required to submit representations by 27 March 2026, with the contract scheduled from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2028.

Opportunities for business growth in this tender lie primarily in specialised healthcare services, particularly those with expertise in psychological therapies for children. Organisations that have capabilities in trauma and attachment therapies, such as the appointed provider Family Action, will find the contract advantageous. The procurement method adopted was a Direct Award Process C, meaning current providers who have successfully met previous standards are considered likely to fulfil future contracts effectively. Businesses aiming to expand in community health services and those possessing quality-driven therapeutic offerings would be well-suited to compete in similar contracts. The contract value is £879,304, and the arrangement promises collaboration with public sector health bodies, enhancing reputation and business prospects in the healthcare domain.
