Summary of the contracting process

The Birmingham & Solihull Mental Health Foundation Trust has awarded a contract titled "Personality Disorder Lead Consultations," pertaining to health services under the CPV classification 85100000. This urgent award, made out of safety and quality concerns under the Provider Selection Regime Regulations 2023, sees Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust providing monthly consultations for the period of 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2027 in Birmingham, UK. The procurement utilised a limited method without prior competition due to the directive’s non-applicability, highlighting the critical nature of the situation. The contract, valued at £6,696.45, commenced on 1st April 2026.

This contract provides substantial opportunities for entities specialising in health service provision, particularly for those offering consultation services and possessing expertise in personality disorders. Businesses familiar with urgent healthcare challenges or capable of mobilising resources rapidly are well-positioned to benefit from such opportunities for growth. Given the specific nature of the service and the absence of a price-based award criterion, organisations with a robust capability in maintaining care quality under urgent conditions will find the procurement especially suitable.
