Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS South West London Integrated Care Board is buying specialist inpatient mental healthcare for one person with complex mental health and associated needs, currently receiving care at Cygnet Churchill. The service covers multidisciplinary assessment, treatment, care, risk management and rehabilitation matched to assessed needs. It is intended to maintain continuity of established care while the person's continuing need for inpatient treatment and opportunities for progression, step-down and discharge are reviewed. The work is hospital-based in London. This is a focused individual placement rather than a general hospital services requirement, so it is most relevant to providers able to deliver specialist inpatient mental health care and support continuity for a person with complex needs.

The procurement is recorded as complete, and Cygnet Healthcare is named as the selected provider. The contract is active and was signed on 28 September 2026. Its stated term runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027, with a value of £1,367,343.51. The buyer used a direct award without a prior competition under Provider Selection Regime process C; the notice describes this as an intention to award subject to the PSR standstill, with representations due by 12 October 2026. The stated evaluation basis gives 30% to improving access, reducing health inequalities and facilitating choice; 20% each to quality and innovation, integration, collaboration and service sustainability, and price; and 10% to social value. The process concerns one placement.

For providers competing when this individual placement requirement next comes to market, the award signals demand for continuity-led specialist inpatient mental healthcare for a person with complex needs, rather than a broad hospital service. A credible provider would need to show it can sustain multidisciplinary assessment and treatment, manage risk, provide rehabilitation, and support progression towards step-down and discharge as needs are reviewed. The buyer's stated assessment places substantial emphasis on access, health inequalities and choice, alongside quality and innovation, integration and collaboration, service sustainability, and social value; price is also assessed. Providers should be able to evidence a dependable service that coordinates care around the individual's assessed needs and can maintain continuity through changing clinical and discharge requirements.
