Summary of the contracting process

NHS Devon Integrated Care Board has awarded a contract for "All Age CHC Assessments & Review Support Devon" within the industry category 'Services provided by nurses'. The procurement, conducted under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, falls outside the scope of the Procurement Act Regulations 2023. The contract, valued at £1,630,000, will be effective from 1st July 2026 for a year, with an optional six-month extension. The procurement process followed a direct award method, with Carehome Selection Ltd. (Trading as Xyla) delivering services across Devon, and potentially accessed by NHS Cornwall. The award decision was based on evaluations in categories such as quality, value, and social impact, with the standstill period concluding on 10th June 2026.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in healthcare services, particularly those offering nursing and patient care support. Large organisations like Xyla, known for delivering quality outcomes and effective integration with existing systems, are well-suited to compete in this sector. The contract's requirements for responsiveness to healthcare needs and social value initiatives, such as commitments to Net Zero and community engagement, align with the capabilities of businesses dedicated to innovation and sustainability in healthcare services. Engaging with NHS Devon could also pave the way for enterprises to expand their presence and influence within this vital industry sector.
