Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for psychological counselling services at HMP Wandsworth has been initiated by Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust, a public sector organisation governed by public law. The title of the procurement is "HMP Wandsworth - Counselling", falling under the community health services category. The procurement method utilised is limited, specifically an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, due to the Provider Selection Regime. While the procurement stage indicates an execution of intention to award, the contract itself is not yet formally awarded. Potential providers were informed that representations should be made by 25 June 2026, with the contract amounting to £1,726,650 and commencing with the supplier, Atrium Clinic.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for providers of counselling and support services, particularly those experienced in working within a correctional setting, to expand their operations and influence in the healthcare services sector. Businesses specialising in community health services and those classified as small and medium enterprises (SMEs) would be particularly well-suited to compete for such contracts. With an already established supplier, potential new entrants might explore opportunities to position themselves for future similar contracts by focusing on offering competitive pricing and demonstrating the ability to deliver specialised services in challenging environments.
