Summary of the contracting process

This procurement process involves NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, for the provision of Adult Sanctuary Services within the Swansea Bay University Health Board. The short-term contract, valued at £312,279, is aimed at continuing mental health services provided out of hours for individuals experiencing a crisis. The contract was signed on 1st April 2026 and spans until 31st October 2026, relevant to the community health services industry category in the UK region UKL18. The procurement method was limited, without prior publication, due to the urgent necessity of continuing services while the Board undergoes a mental health services transformation, awaiting a review and potential market testing for revised service provision.

This tender offers opportunities for businesses specialising in community health services, particularly those capable of providing urgent mental health crisis support. The contract has been awarded to the incumbent provider, Adferiad Recovery, an SME based in Swansea, reflecting potential for small and medium enterprises to engage in future service developments. Although bidding was limited, possibly due to the nature of the award without prior competition call, companies interested in future tenders might benefit by aligning their services with the expected outcomes of the health board's ongoing service transformation. By focusing on innovative mental health solutions and crisis response strategies, businesses can position themselves to compete in potential upcoming procurements.
