Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process is spearheaded by the Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust for the provision of "Mental Health Inpatient Beds" within the health services category. The contract, identified as E-ICB-NWBB1-001, particularly focuses on services in the UK. This process has reached the award stage as of 11th June 2026. Key stakeholders include the buyer, Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust, and the supplier, Cygnet Health Care Ltd. The procurement method used was limited, with the decision made through a direct award, bypassing the standard call for competition due to the existing sub-contractor's satisfactory performance. The contract, valued at £2,863,165.50, was signed on 1st April 2026.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the health services sector, particularly those specialising in mental health inpatient care. Companies like Cygnet Health Care Ltd, which is identified as a small or medium-sized enterprise (SME), are particularly well-suited to take part in such tenders given their existing expertise and ability to meet the contractual demands. By participating in such procurement processes, businesses can expand their portfolio and gain greater market presence in the competitive landscape of healthcare provision. Moreover, companies that can consistently demonstrate exceptional service quality and reliability stand to benefit from direct awards, especially when traditional competitive procedures are streamlined or omitted.
