Summary of the contracting process

This procurement process involves the NHS Central East Integrated Care Board (ICB), aiming to award a contract for supported accommodation services under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR), regulated by the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The contract targets the health services industry, offering a supported living environment for those receiving secondary mental health services. The services will be centred in the United Kingdom, specifically in regions UKH11 and UKH12, with a planned contract duration from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2029. Interested providers should note the standstill period following the approval on 16 January 2025, with representations due by 6 May 2026.

Businesses with experience in handling repeat service orders and those capable of adapting to system changes within Integrated Care Boards could find this opportunity beneficial for strategic growth and increased sector influence. The indicative annual contract value is £298,145, subject to final approval, with a two-year extension option available.
