Summary of the contracting process

Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust procured health services to provide 28 inpatient rehabilitation beds. The requirement concerns mental health rehabilitation beds for patients in the Salford and Manchester geographical area. The buyer is the Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust, based in Manchester. The service falls within CPV 85100000, health services, rather than goods, construction or general facilities management. The requirement relates to inpatient provision, so relevant suppliers are specialist healthcare providers able to operate or provide rehabilitation beds and associated clinical care. The procurement was structured around one requirement for mental health beds. The stated service context also indicates that the selected provider is integrated into the Greater Manchester Mental Health systems and processes, which is relevant to suppliers assessing operational compatibility with the Trust.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. Two active awards identify Elysium Healthcare Ltd, including its Borehamwood entity, as supplier for the mental health beds requirement. The related lot is recorded as cancelled, although the awards and contracts are active. One active contract is valued at £4,088,000. A second active contract is valued at £4,819,740 and was signed on 24 August 2026; its stated duration is 360 days. This contract was amended to increase its value because circumstances led to an unforeseen increase in contract price. Another contract was signed on 1 April 2026. The buyer justified the direct award by citing the size and scale of the requirement, the lack of a realistic alternative provider and the supplier’s integration with existing systems and processes.

This award shows demand from Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust for a substantial, specialist inpatient mental health rehabilitation service rather than a standard accommodation or staffing contract. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement of this type would be established healthcare organisations able to provide safe inpatient rehabilitation beds, qualified clinical staff, mental health assessment and treatment, and the governance needed for vulnerable patients. Credible competitors would also need enough bed capacity and operational resilience to support the required scale in the Salford and Manchester area. Experience of delivering NHS or comparable regulated mental health services would strengthen their position. The procurement also indicates that compatibility with the Trust’s systems and processes matters, so suppliers should be able to demonstrate effective information governance, clinical integration, referral management and continuity of care.

Procurement Information

Due to the size and scale of the requirement of the number of rehabilitation beds within the Salford/Manchester geographical area it is the opinion of the care group that there is not currently a realistic alternative provider. As it currently stands the provider is also integrated into GMMH systems and processes. Therefore the Care Group believes that it is acting fairly and transparently to in using Direct Award A of the PSR in order to re-award the sub-contract.
