Summary of the contracting process

NHS England commissioned Integrated Non-Custodial Services, a specialist criminal justice healthcare and support service. The requirement is for a continuous, coordinated pathway addressing people’s identified health and wellbeing needs alongside factors associated with offending behaviour. It covers early intervention, continuity of care and improved outcomes across criminal justice services. The service includes Liaison and Diversion, Mental Health Treatment Requirements and RECONNECT provision, supported by partnership working between health and justice organisations. Lot 1 covers Coventry and Warwickshire, while Lot 2 covers West Mercia. The procurement is categorised as health services. Delivery requires safe, effective, integrated and sustainable provision for people moving through non-custodial criminal justice settings, with appropriate links between healthcare, justice and community services.

The competitive process is complete and contracts were signed on 1 September 2026. Coventry and Warwickshire was awarded to Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Partnership Trust for £13,948,422; the contract runs from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2034, with an option to extend by two years after an initial five-year period. West Mercia was awarded to Midlands Partnership NHS Foundation Trust for £21,577,380, on the same contract period and renewal basis. The procurement used an open procedure under the Provider Selection Regime. Bids were assessed on quality and cost, weighted 80% and 20% respectively. Three bids were received for Coventry and Warwickshire and two for West Mercia. Both resulting contracts are active.

This procurement shows demand for large-scale, integrated criminal justice healthcare delivered across defined geographic areas. A credible future provider would need established capability in Liaison and Diversion, Mental Health Treatment Requirements and RECONNECT services, together with experience supporting people across the criminal justice pathway. The evaluation also indicates that strong service delivery arrangements, effective partnership working across health and justice systems, robust governance, workforce capability and a clear approach to improving service-user outcomes are important. Suppliers would need the organisational capacity to operate a coordinated, sustainable service across multiple locations and agencies, demonstrate safe and effective clinical and support provision, and evidence how their workforce, governance and partnerships would maintain continuity of care.
