## Summary

The procurement process titled "Adult ASD Assessments" was conducted by Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust, focusing on reducing the backlog and waiting times for adult assessments within the health services sector. The contract, valued at £384,000 GBP, was awarded on 11 February 2026 to The Autism Assessment Service Ltd. The procurement method was selective, executed as a call-off from a framework agreement, having concluded the tendering stage on 8 December 2025. The services are to be delivered in the United Kingdom, particularly in Dartford, with the contract period commencing on 16 February 2026 and concluding on 15 February 2027.

This contract presents significant business growth opportunities for companies specialising in health services, particularly those experienced in providing assessments for autism spectrum disorders. Although unsuitable for SMEs and VCSEs, larger enterprises with a strong footing in health service delivery could leverage this contract to strengthen their market presence in the region. The Autism Assessment Service Ltd, a smaller scale entity, exemplifies the type of specialised service provider well-suited to such opportunities, demonstrating how niche expertise and framework collaboration can effectively secure substantial contracts. Businesses aiming to expand their service offerings or enter the UK health services market could find similar opportunities beneficial.
