Summary of the contracting process

Aneurin Bevan University Health Board is seeking to engage a provider for suicide bereavement support services under a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) aimed at identifying the Most Suitable Provider Process (MSPP). The procurement, classified under the health services category, involves the delivery of services to individuals aged 26 and over affected by suicide within the geographical area of the Health Board in the United Kingdom. The procurement process is currently in the tender stage, with an open procedure being followed. Interested providers have until 5th August 2026, 3pm to express their interest and meet the selection criteria. The contracting value is estimated at £250,000, and the service delivery is expected to occur over a period of approximately four years without renewal options.

This tender presents an opportunity for organisations with expertise in health services delivery, particularly those with experience in community-based and in-person support systems. Businesses capable of providing comprehensive support, including face-to-face appointments, home visits, peer support groups, and community event participation, should find this tender particularly advantageous. The requirement for robust staffing and operational capability suggests that medium to large service providers, potentially those specialising in mental health support, are well-positioned to compete. This contract is ideal for organisations looking to expand their presence in the health services sector within the UK, particularly in Wales, aligning with the strategic procurement opportunities presented by the Aneurin Bevan University Health Board.
