OJEU - F2 - Contract Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Moray Council, a regional local authority in Elgin, focuses on the provision of community mental health and wellbeing services for children and young people in Moray. The contract, identified as "18/1123", falls under the services category within the general public services industry. Initially tendered using an open procedure with electronic submissions, this contract has reached the award stage, having been granted to SAMH, a large-scale supplier based in Glasgow, for a value of £714,856. The procurement specifically targets regional services in UKM62, emphasising prevention and early intervention in mental wellbeing, aiming to provide support to those aged 5-24 (extended to 26 for care-experienced individuals).

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in mental health and wellbeing services, especially those with expertise in delivering community-based support. The focus on early intervention and the provision of additionality to universal services creates a niche for companies adept at non-clinical interventions. Businesses with the capacity to deliver high-quality services (90% weight in the award criteria) and competitive pricing (10% weight) stand to benefit. Additionally, entities equipped to handle insurance and financial compliance, alongside previous relevant experience, are well-suited to compete in this sector. The contract's potential renewable terms further underscore the long-term growth opportunities for successful vendors in the region.
