Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Northamptonshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust commissioned rehabilitation and care-package co-ordination for its locked, unlocked and specialist treatment services. The work is to co-ordinate care packages effectively, rather than provide a general health service. The delivery location is Northamptonshire. This is a health services requirement for a provider able to co-ordinate packages across the specified treatment settings and support continuity of care for people receiving those services. The Trust is the buyer; St Andrew’s Healthcare was selected to deliver the requirement. The procurement indicates demand for specialist rehabilitation service co-ordination from the Trust, with the incumbent provider’s existing service forming the basis of the award.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to St Andrew’s Healthcare through a Direct Award C under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, without a prior call for competition. The Trust assessed the existing provider against key criteria, including current performance and its ability to meet the requirement, and considered the contract not to have changed considerably from the previous arrangement. The award date was 1 April 2025, and the contract was signed that day. The contract period runs from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2026. The contract value is £204,930. The published evaluation split was 70% quality and 30% price. One bid was recorded. The process comprised one lot; its status is marked cancelled, while the award and contract are recorded as active.

For suppliers seeking to compete for comparable work with this Trust, the award points to a requirement for established rehabilitation services and effective co-ordination of care packages across locked, unlocked and specialist treatment. A credible provider would need to demonstrate strong service quality, reliable delivery and the ability to sustain the care co-ordination model in practice. The Trust’s stated assessment included the provider’s current performance and whether it could reasonably be expected to meet the contract requirements. The decision also relied on continuity with an existing provider and a requirement that had not changed considerably from the previous contract. Suppliers should therefore be able to evidence relevant delivery experience and performance against key service criteria, alongside a competitive price; quality carried greater weight than price in the stated evaluation.
