Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Shropshire Community Health NHS Trust procured autism spectrum disorder (ASD) assessment services. The requirement is described as ASD assessments, classified as health services, and is associated with the West Midlands area. The Trust is the buyer, and the selected provider is Axia Asd Limited. This is a service requirement rather than a purchase of goods or construction work, focused specifically on carrying out ASD assessments for the Trust. The procurement concerns one lot covering the assessment service. Its stated purpose is to repeat existing services, indicating a continuation of an established requirement rather than a newly described service area.

The procurement is complete and the Trust selected Axia Asd Limited for the ASD assessment service. The contract is active and was signed on 19 October 2026, with a value of £25,987. The published description says the award is subject to a standstill period ending on 31 October 2026, after which the contract would be entered into subject to completion of documentation. The Trust used a limited procedure without a prior call for competition, citing repetition of existing services. The single lot is recorded as cancelled, while the award and contract are recorded as active. The award information reports one bid. The lot’s stated evaluation criterion was price.

For providers of autism assessment services, this award demonstrates a specific, recurring requirement at Shropshire Community Health NHS Trust: delivery of ASD assessments in the West Midlands. The Trust treated the work as a repetition of existing services and awarded through a procedure without a prior competition, so familiarity with the established service requirement and the ability to deliver a continuation of provision would be commercially relevant when this work next returns to market. The recorded evaluation criterion was price, making a competitive cost proposition important alongside credible assessment delivery. The single bid recorded and the selection of Axia ASD Limited show that one provider was selected for the requirement. Suppliers considering this buyer’s future assessment needs should be positioned to deliver the defined ASD service at a focused, single-contract scale.
