Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council procured inpatient treatment for people withdrawing from drugs and alcohol, as part of rehabilitation services. The service involves providing inpatient care to manage withdrawal and support recovery under Route B of the Health Care Services Provider Selection Regime. The buyer is Derbyshire County Council, a local authority based in Matlock. The awarded provider is Rotherham Doncaster and South Humber NHS Foundation Trust, based in Doncaster. The procurement is classified as rehabilitation services. The requirement is for specialist healthcare and addiction-treatment providers able to deliver inpatient withdrawal management, rather than general social care, community support or non-clinical rehabilitation services.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Derbyshire County Council signed the contract with Rotherham Doncaster and South Humber NHS Foundation Trust on 26 June 2026. The initial contract period runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2029, with options for two further 24-month extensions, giving a possible total term to 31 March 2033. The contract value is £2,450,000, although the procurement states that payments are made on a cost-per-case basis for services actually delivered and there is no guaranteed value for the provider. The award was made under Direct Award B of the Provider Selection Regime, without prior publication of a competition. Patient choice was the stated evaluation criterion, with one electronic bid received.

This award indicates demand for sustained, specialist inpatient drug and alcohol withdrawal treatment commissioned by Derbyshire County Council. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement would have clinical capability in medically managed withdrawal, inpatient rehabilitation and safe patient discharge, supported by suitable facilities, qualified healthcare staff and the capacity to accept referrals when required. Experience of delivering regulated healthcare services and working with public-sector commissioners would strengthen credibility. The selected provider is a large NHS foundation trust, suggesting that clinical governance, operational resilience and the ability to manage a continuing flow of individual cases are relevant competitive strengths. Providers should also be able to submit clear cost-per-case rates and demonstrate how patient choice is supported.
