## Summary

The procurement process titled "West Yorkshire Mental Health PICU capacity" is initiated by NHS Wakefield CCG, focusing on health services within the West Yorkshire region. The procurement is at the Award stage and was formally signed on 4 January 2021, with a contract value of £558,920. This Limited procurement method, conducted through negotiated processes without prior publication of a contract notice, aims to secure additional Psychiatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) capacity within West Yorkshire, particularly crucial due to increased demand amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.

This tender presents an opportunity for growth specifically for healthcare service providers with expertise in psychiatric care. Businesses able to offer healthcare services, particularly those with the capability to provide and manage psychiatric intensive care facilities, would be well-positioned to compete. Given the unique circumstances leading to this procurement, suppliers should be ready to demonstrate their capacity to meet urgent healthcare needs, potentially collaborating with established providers like Cygnet Health Care Limited, the awarded supplier currently holding the contract.

## Notice

To secure additional Psychiatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) capacity within West Yorkshire to mitigate the impact of a COVID outbreak, support the inpatient beds to operate at reduced occupancy and to build capacity into the system in order to strengthen Infection Prevention and Control measures.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

To secure additional Psychiatric Intensive Care Unit capacity within West Yorkshire to mitigate the impact of a COVID outbreak, support the inpatient beds to operate at reduced occupancy and to build capacity into the system in order to strengthen Infection Prevention and Control measures. CYGNET Healthcare is the only independent sector provider of Psychiatric Intensive Care Unit beds in West Yorkshire. Health Commissioners within the West Yorkshire Integrated Care System (ICS) have existing contracted service capacity. COVID and social distancing has forced the ICS to operate at reduced occupancy. Throughout the pandemic, demand has continued to grow for this area and has necessitated the purchase of additional capacity. The commissioners want to secure capacity within West Yorkshire to prevent out of area placements. The Commissioners are only aware, with their best endeavours, of a single provider who has such available capacity within West Yorkshire.

### Procurement Information

CYGNET Healthcare is the only independent sector provider of Psychiatric Intensive Care Unit beds in West Yorkshire. The West Yorkshire Mental Health Trusts considered the feasibility of re-purposing an existing NHS facility to provide the additional PICU beds but it was deemed unfeasible due to estate and workforce constraints
