Summary of the contracting process

The NHS West and North London Integrated Care Board is progressing to the award stage of a Provider Selection Regime for Continuing Healthcare (CHC) services, specifically for a contract with DMP Healthcare (Elmstead) Ltd. The industry category pertains to social work services with accommodation across the UK, with a focus on health and social work services. The formal contract award is yet pending; however, the intention notice was issued on 9th July 2026, initiating a standstill period until 21st July 2026. The procurement is conducted under a limited method without prior competition publication, and it follows the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The contract is expected to commence on 1st April 2026 with an initial duration of 24 months, though CHC placements may vary based on user eligibility.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for providers in the health and social care sector able to deliver residential care home services. As the procurement employs a direct award process to an existing provider, businesses with established relationships and proven service delivery in the healthcare sector may find advantageous opportunities particularly around offering competitive enhancements or supplementary services that align with NHS priorities of patient choice, continuity, and service quality. Entities with a focus on maintaining high service standards and patient satisfaction could strategically position themselves for future contract considerations or complementary service provisions.
