Summary of the contracting process

Northumberland County Council procured an integrated community drug and alcohol service for residents of Northumberland. The service covers health and social work support, including treatment and recovery-based interventions for people affected by drug and alcohol dependence. Its purpose is to provide a safe, supportive, accessible and effective treatment system that reduces the harms associated with addiction and substance misuse and supports long-term, sustainable recovery. Delivery is linked to the Council’s local strategies, its Drug Strategy and the Northumbria Combating Drugs Partnership. The requirement is focused on community-based provision and includes structured treatment, recovery support and related employment assistance for people receiving treatment.

This procurement has been awarded. It was arranged as a single lot, and the contract was awarded to Cumbria, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust (CNTWFT). The contract was signed on 13 July 2023 and has a duration of 1,620 days. Its value is £25,530,355.85. The contract is active. The service falls within health and social work services. The contract has since been modified under the Provider Selection Regime to increase delivery through funding for posts and employment support for people receiving structured community treatment for drug and alcohol dependence who are unemployed or at risk of unemployment. The buyer is Northumberland County Council, with delivery in Northumberland.

This requirement indicates demand for an integrated, community-based service combining drug and alcohol treatment, harm reduction and recovery support. Suppliers likely to be credible when this requirement next reaches the market will need the clinical, safeguarding and operational capability to provide structured treatment for substance dependence at community scale, while making services safe, supportive and accessible to local residents. The requirement also points to the value of sustained recovery pathways rather than isolated interventions, including employment support for people who are unemployed or at risk of unemployment. Organisations should be able to work with the Council, NHS and local partnership arrangements, align delivery with local drug strategies, and manage a broad treatment system with measurable, long-term outcomes.
