Summary of the contracting process

The Cambridgeshire & Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust intends to award a contract for Occupational Therapy Services under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. This process marks a direct award under the PSR, excluding the applicability of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The procurement process has reached the award stage, with a standstill period beginning after the notice publication and closing for representations by 25th June 2026. The awarded services are located in the UKH region, with an intended contract commencement from 1st July 2026 for one year. The procurement method used was limited, specifically awarding a contract without prior publication of a call for competition, due to it being outside the scope of standard directives.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those in the field of occupational therapy. The existing contract satisfaction suggests continuity and reliability for the incumbent providers, making it well-suited for businesses that can meet rigorous quality and service standards. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in health-related services may find a competitive edge, given the specialised nature of the service and the substantial contract value of £50,000. This arrangement highlights opportunities for businesses capable of delivering consistent, high-quality health services to engage with NHS Trusts and expand their portfolio in the public healthcare sector.
