Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, managed by the Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust, has recently concluded with an awarded contract for "Consultant Support for Eating Disorder Service" within the health services industry. This limited procurement method was facilitated without prior publication of a call for competition due to the unique integrated service requirements in Wigan, UK. The contract was awarded to the Wigan Wrightington & Leigh NHS Foundation Trust with an active status since 1st April 2026, at a value of £32,751. The procurement is based on regulations permitting direct awards for services that are interdependent and can only be realistically provided by specific providers due to their specialised nature.

This tender presents a strategic opportunity for businesses already involved or aiming to engage in the health services industry, particularly those specialising in collaborative and cross-specialty service delivery. Businesses with expertise in health sector collaborations or subcontracting with NHS trusts might find valuable growth prospects, given the emphasis on integrated services for young people with eating disorders. The award demonstrates the benefit of strategic partnerships between healthcare organisations, allowing businesses to leverage their specialised skills in a way that complements large public service providers.
