Summary of the contracting process

NHS Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly Integrated Care Board commissioned the Partnership for the Inclusion of Neurodiversity in Schools (PINS), a service supporting maternity, children and young people. The work combines Neurodiversity Profiling Tool training with administration support for community workforce development, and publication and production of training materials on neurodiversity and learning disability in children and young people. It is a training and workforce-development service, rather than a purchase of physical goods or construction. The buyer is the NHS Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly Integrated Care Board, and the service is for its work in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly.

The procurement is complete and a contract has been awarded to Kernow Health CIC. The buyer used a below-threshold direct award without competition. The contract was signed on 2 September 2026 and runs from 2 September 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £48,000. There was one lot, which is complete. The contract is active. The published procurement information identifies training services as the category and describes the PINS training, administration and materials requirements; it does not set out a separate scoring or evaluation basis. The stated end date aligns with the expiry date given for the PINS requirement.

This award indicates demand from the Integrated Care Board for practical neurodiversity training and the supporting work needed to deliver it: community workforce-development administration, and the publication and production of training materials. Suppliers credible for a comparable requirement would need to bring training capability around the Neurodiversity Profiling Tool and children and young people’s neurodiversity and learning disability, alongside the operational capacity to organise workforce development and prepare and publish materials. Familiarity with the NHS and local children’s and maternity services would be relevant to serving this buyer’s stated area and audience. The award went to Kernow Health CIC through a direct award without competition, so it demonstrates an established provider and a small, focused service requirement rather than a competed multi-lot programme.
