Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS Essex Integrated Care Board procured Children and Young People (CYP) ADHD and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) healthcare services under patient choice arrangements. The requirement is classified as health services, including psychiatrist or psychologist services. Delivery is in Essex. The service is intended for children and young people who use patient choice to access ADHD and/or ASD support, with activity dependent on referrals and service use. The named buying organisation is NHS Essex Integrated Care Board, formerly NHS Mid and South Essex Integrated Care Board at the time of the award decision. The selected supplier, Mina Medical Ltd, is based in Southend-on-Sea and is recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise.

This procurement has been awarded following Direct Award Process B under the Healthcare Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, using an award procedure without prior publication of a competition. Mina Medical Ltd was selected for the Children and Young People ADHD/ASD Services requirement; the award is active and one bid was recorded. The contract was signed on 23 April 2026. The amended contract period is 24 July 2026 to 23 July 2027. The contract record gives a value of £1 GBP, while the procurement description states that there is no guaranteed activity and records a total value of £0.00. Evaluation was based on patient choice and there being no realistic alternative provider, with quality and cost criteria each recorded as 100.

This award indicates demand from NHS Essex for specialist Children and Young People ADHD and autism spectrum disorder services delivered through patient choice. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement would be established healthcare providers able to deliver clinically appropriate ADHD and ASD services for children and young people, including relevant psychiatrist or psychologist expertise. Credibility would also depend on demonstrating that the service can operate within NHS commissioning and patient-choice arrangements, manage variable referral-led activity, and provide continuity at the required scale. The selected provider was an SME and an existing provider to the NHS commissioner, showing that established local delivery experience and the ability to demonstrate there is no realistic alternative provider can be important under this direct-award route.
