The service is to offer therapeutic interventions and a resource library through patient-facing digital tools and platforms for children and young people, and/or their parents and carers. The tools are intended to provide evidence-based interventions recommended by NICE for common mental health presentations, with specified target populations such as age ranges. The service is also expected to align with NICE guidance and the NHS England children and young people’s access and waiting times standard, with activity and outcomes reported directly into the Mental Health Services Data Set. The work is categorised as mental health services, including psychological or psychiatric services. The buyer invited offers through an open procedure. The deadline for submitting offers was 3 November 2026 at 09:30 UTC. The stated contract period runs from 4 November to 5 November 2026. No tender value or award evaluation criteria are stated in the procurement information. The opportunity is presented as one service requirement rather than being divided into lots. The suitability assessment indicates that the procurement is not suitable for small or medium-sized enterprises or for voluntary, community and social enterprises. The service must address common mental health presentations using evidence-based interventions and specified target populations, and its delivery and reporting are to align with the stated clinical guidance and national access and waiting-time standard. This opportunity is suited to a provider able to deliver children’s and young people’s mental health interventions through digital tools and platforms, while making resources accessible to patients and, where relevant, their parents or carers. Relevant capabilities include providing therapeutic interventions for common mental health presentations and tailoring them to defined groups, including age ranges. Providers should be able to ensure interventions are evidence-based and consistent with NICE recommendations, and align service activity and outcomes with the NHS England children and young people’s access and waiting times standard. The requirement also calls for the ability to report directly into the Mental Health Services Data Set. The stated suitability assessment rules out SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating that smaller or mission-led suppliers may not be well placed to compete as the lead provider. ## Notice We are seeking a Provider to work in partnership with, who will provide therapeutic interventions and a resource library via patient facing digital tools and platforms for Children, Young People and/or their parents or carers.
