Summary of the contracting process

The Bradford District Care NHS Foundation Trust is in the process of awarding a contract for the provision of physiotherapy services in Bradford under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR). The award notice serves as an intent to award this contract to an existing supplier, Physio Med Limited. This procurement process is operated without a prior call for competition, aligning with PSR Regulations 2023, and is intended to replace an existing contract set to expire on 31 May 2026. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 June 2026 to 31 May 2027, with the option to extend for up to two additional 12-month periods. The contract, valued at approximately £65,000, will be subject to a standstill period ending on 18 May 2026, allowing providers to make representations until this date. The procurement stage is currently at the intention-to-award phase, with the award status marked as active pending completion of administrative processes. The procurement is categorised under services, specifically in physiotherapy (CPV: 85142100), with the main delivery location in Bradford, United Kingdom.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses, especially those experienced in delivering healthcare and physiotherapy services. Although a direct award approach was taken, reflecting the trust's assessment that a competitive process would not deliver additional value, other SMEs in healthcare could benefit from considering future opportunities with the NHS, particularly those experienced in meeting stringent healthcare quality standards. The PSR Direct Award C process focuses on maintaining service standards and ensuring integration, making it ideal for businesses that can demonstrate proven competence and performance in similar contracts. This contract provides a stable revenue opportunity with potential for extension, which can support business growth and strengthen relationships with regional health authorities.
