Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, led by Northamptonshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, pertains to the provision of various CAMHS (Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services). This contract award, dated 31 July 2026, is under the Health Care Services Provider Selection Regime (PSR 2023) and is classified under the CPV category of psychiatric hospital services. The procurement method used was limited, without prior publication of a call for competition, due to the integrated nature of services that only the existing provider could realistically manage. The contract covers a wide geographical area across regions, including UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, UKJ, and UKK, and was signed with the supplier Priory Group Ltd on 13 July 2026.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses operating in the mental health and healthcare services industry, particularly those specialising in services that cater to child and adolescent mental health needs. Given the specialised nature of the services required, businesses with experience in providing integrated healthcare services that align seamlessly with existing systems would be well-suited to compete in similar procurements. The awarded contract, valued at £396,579.80, highlights the financial potential for businesses capable of offering tailored solutions in niche healthcare service areas, positioning them for future engagements within the NHS framework.
