Summary of the contracting process

NHS Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care Board procured mental health wellbeing support worker services for people experiencing severe multiple disadvantage. The service is intended to engage people affected by the combined challenges of substance use, mental ill health, homelessness and offending, providing practical wellbeing support and helping them engage with appropriate services. This is a health service rather than a goods supply or construction requirement. Delivery covers the Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and Leicestershire areas represented in the procurement. The requirement was structured as one service package. It is relevant to organisations experienced in community mental health, outreach and support for people with complex needs, particularly where substance use, housing instability and offending histories overlap.

The procurement has been formally awarded under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, using direct award process C without a prior call for competition. Emmanuel House was selected for the service, with an awarded contract value of £20,780. The contract was signed on 13 July 2026 and covers 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2028. The contracting process is recorded as complete and the contract as active. The original intention-to-award notice stated that representations had to reach the decision makers by midnight on 4 August 2026, with the standstill period beginning the following day. Evaluation gave the existing provider’s ability to meet the required quality standard 100% weighting and value 0%; key criteria were described as equally important.

This award shows demand from the Integrated Care Board for a specialist, community-based mental health and wellbeing service for people facing severe multiple disadvantage. A credible future competitor would need experience engaging people who may be affected simultaneously by substance use, mental ill health, homelessness and offending, rather than delivering a narrow single-issue service. Relevant capability includes trusted outreach, sustained relationship-building, trauma-informed support, safeguarding, risk management and effective referral or engagement with health, housing, substance-use and criminal-justice services. Providers should also be able to demonstrate that they can deliver consistently across the covered East Midlands areas and evidence strong performance against an existing service model. The evaluation emphasis indicates that proven quality and delivery performance are central to this requirement.
