Summary of the contracting process

The NHS South East London Integrated Care Board is initiating a tender process under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) for an Emotional Support and Advocacy Service aimed at children and young people who have experienced child sexual abuse. Categorised under health services, this procurement process is located in the UKI region. The intention to award notice was released on 25 March 2026, signalling the commencement of a standstill period until 9 April 2026, during which representations can be made. While the contract has not yet been formally awarded, it is intended to be directly awarded to Barnardo's, the existing provider. The contract is set to span one year, from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027, with a total value of £158,036. The procurement method adheres to a limited approach, opting for an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition.

This tender presents potential growth opportunities for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those with expertise in mental health care and support for vulnerable groups. The NHS South East London Integrated Care Board is focusing on key criteria such as Quality and Innovation, Value for Money, and Service Sustainability, offering an advantage to businesses that can deliver significant social value and collaborative solutions. Organisations with a strong track record in providing integrated care services, reducing health inequalities, and facilitating choice would be well-suited to compete in such procurement processes. While the direct award process suggests an existing provider preference, businesses capable of offering high-quality, innovative solutions in child support services should monitor future procurement opportunities from this trust for potential collaborations.
