Summary of the contracting process

Leeds City Council is procuring a community stop smoking service in Leeds. The service will engage and support people who smoke to stop smoking, with a particular focus on people who have, or are at risk of developing, a common mental health illness or a long-term physical health condition. It will prioritise groups and areas where smoking rates are higher than the city average. This is a community health service, covering the single service requirement. Suppliers will therefore need to deliver support in community settings across Leeds and work with priority populations whose smoking needs are linked to mental or long-term physical health conditions.

The process has reached tender: the council invited offers for the service. It is being run under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, using the Most Suitable Provider process, with the intention of making an award under Regulation 12. The contract is due to run from 1 September 2026 to 31 March 2027. The service is organised as one requirement rather than separate lots. The stated decision-maker is the Director of Public Health. Evaluation is based on identifying the most suitable provider through the PSR process. The procurement concerns services rather than goods or works.

This opportunity suits organisations that can provide community-based stop smoking support and engage people who smoke across Leeds. Strong relevance is likely for providers experienced in helping people stop smoking while addressing the needs of people with common mental health illnesses or long-term physical health conditions. The service also calls for the ability to work with priority groups and in areas where smoking prevalence is above the city average. Suppliers should be able to establish effective community engagement, tailor support to different health needs and deliver consistently across the city. Public, voluntary-sector, community-health and specialist smoking-cessation providers with these capabilities may be well placed to compete.
