Summary of the contracting process

The recent procurement process by the Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust involved the provision of a Young Persons Substance Misuse Practitioner service to support CAMHS inpatient services. This contract falls under the health services industry category and is located in Manchester, UK. The procurement is at the award stage, confirmed on 2 July 2026, following the contract signing on 1 April 2026. The process used was a direct award under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, which bypasses the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 due to the specific nature of the procurement method as limited, without prior publication of a call for competition.

This procurement presents opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within the health services sector to engage in similar future tenders, particularly those with expertise in substance misuse management and youth mental health services. The direct award process indicates potential for businesses that already have a strong local presence or existing relationship with the trust, evidenced by the contract awarded to the SME, Early Break, based in Bury, UK. Companies operating in health services seeking to expand their portfolio in public health contracts may find similar opportunities beneficial for business growth.
