Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by North Northamptonshire Council involves the design of an engagement pathway aimed at addressing severe mental illness and tobacco smoking cessation. Located at The Corby Cube in Corby, the council seeks to collaborate with professionals and stakeholders involved with severe mental illness populations to improve access to smoking cessation services. This direct procurement, classified as a service within the health sector, is being executed without competition and is structured as a below-threshold contract. The project commenced with the signing of the contract on 24 March 2026 and is set to conclude on 31 October 2026.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for professionals and organisations specialising in health services, particularly those focused on tobacco cessation and mental health. Large-scale enterprises, such as Northamptonshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, have already embraced this contract, exemplifying the potential for service providers adept in health services to expand their influence within public health initiatives. Businesses capable of delivering comprehensive stop smoking support, and possessing significant experience in mental health interventions, are well-positioned to thrive in similar future opportunities. The engagement aims to enhance referral pathways for smokers wishing to quit, thereby providing integrated service solutions along with business growth potential through public sector partnerships.
