## Summary

The National Health Service (NHS) Rotherham Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) has conducted a public procurement process for the 'Suicide Bereavement Support Service'. Classified under health services, this procurement is located in Rotherham, South Yorkshire. The tender was initiated on 8th September 2021 and was open until 8th October 2021. The procurement method employed was the open procedure, allowing any qualified supplier to submit bids. With a contract duration of up to 25 months and a total contract value of £167,308, this initiative reflects the NHS's ongoing commitment to improving mental health services across the region.

This tender presents significant business opportunities, particularly for organisations specialising in mental health support, counselling services, and public health initiatives. Companies with experience in delivering mental health programmes or support services tailored to families and individuals affected by suicide would be well-positioned to compete for this contract. Additionally, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) focused on community health initiatives could particularly benefit from this procurement, leveraging their expertise to meet the needs outlined in the NHS's Long Term Plan.

## Notice

The NHS Long Term Plan published in July 2019 set out an ambitious programme of transformation across the NHS. It recognises that suicide prevention is a complex system-wide challenge which requires close working between the NHS, public health and partner organisations, tailoring evidence of what works to local need and determinants. The suicide reduction ambition sits within the context of other improvements to mental health services in the NHS Long Term Plan which will support preventing suicides, most notably: 24/7 crisis care for all ages available via 111; integrated community models for SMI which will include meeting needs for those who self-harm and with co-morbid substance use; and improving the therapeutic environment in inpatient settings
