Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Birmingham & Solihull Mental Health Foundation Trust sought low and medium secure beds and associated rehabilitation services for mental health provision. The requirement was classified as rehabilitation services and was intended for delivery in the United Kingdom. The procurement related to a single requirement for secure accommodation and care rather than a wider range of goods or works. The buying organisation is Birmingham & Solihull Mental Health Foundation Trust, based in Birmingham. University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust is identified as the review body. The process was subsequently abandoned, so this requirement should be treated as a cancelled procurement rather than an available opportunity for providers of secure mental health beds or rehabilitation services.

The procurement reached tender through an open procedure, with the buyer inviting offers by electronic or written submission. It was then abandoned under the applicable public procurement regime, and the notice states that no contracts were awarded. The published tender deadline was 21 July 2026 at 17:00, with bids required to remain valid until 23:59:59 the same day. The published contract period was 1,080 days. The estimated value was £30,000,000, including a single lot valued at £30,000,000. The published award basis was price. English was the submission language, variants were not allowed, and the planned bid opening and award period began on 21 July 2026. These arrangements no longer create a bidding opportunity.

This procurement would have suited established mental health providers able to operate low and medium secure beds and deliver rehabilitation services in the United Kingdom. Relevant suppliers would need the clinical, safeguarding, accommodation and operational capability to support people requiring secure mental health provision over a substantial service period. Providers would also need sufficient capacity to meet the requirement as a single lot, together with experience of delivering secure or rehabilitative care at the required scale. The published process did not identify specific accreditations, staffing qualifications or financial thresholds. However, because the procurement was abandoned and no contract was awarded, suppliers should not invest in preparing a bid for this process. Any future requirement would need to be pursued through a new procurement.
