Summary of the contracting process

Leeds City Council is procuring community health services for the community mental health element of its Leeds Tobacco Dependence Treatment Service, known as the Leeds Stop Smoking Service. The work is focused on people in Leeds who want to stop smoking and need additional support because of their mental health. The service is intended to engage people in community settings and provide evidence-based behavioural change interventions. It relates to community support for priority groups and is intended to improve quality, encourage innovation and reduce health inequalities. This is a service opportunity for organisations delivering tobacco-dependence treatment, stop-smoking support, community mental health engagement or related behavioural health interventions. Delivery is in Leeds, with the council acting as the buying organisation.

The procurement has been completed and awarded under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, using a competitive open procedure. Inspire North (Community Benefit Society) was selected as the supplier, with one bid recorded, and the contract was signed on 7 September 2026. The contract value is £1,249,999.20. The contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2029, with an option to extend for up to a further 24 months in any combination. The estimated tender value was £1,125,000. Evaluation was based on quality and cost, with the published criteria each described as 100. Bids were submitted electronically in English. The procurement has one lot; its recorded status is cancelled, although the associated award and contract are active.

This award shows that Leeds City Council buys locally delivered stop-smoking support specifically designed for people whose mental health creates additional barriers to quitting. A credible future supplier would need the ability to engage priority groups in community settings, assess individual support needs and provide evidence-based behavioural change interventions. Relevant experience is likely to include tobacco-dependence treatment, public health delivery, community mental health work and partnership working with local services. Providers should be able to demonstrate consistent service quality, practical innovation and an approach that addresses health inequalities. The single-bid outcome indicates a relatively focused market requirement, while the selected supplier’s community benefit society status shows that an organisation with a social-purpose model can meet the requirement. Electronic tendering and a competitive route define the buyer’s established approach.
