## Summary

NHS England is undertaking a re-procurement for the NHS Digital Weight Management Programme, aimed at providing health services across the UK. This programme targets patients with a BMI of 30+ accompanied by comorbidities and is delivered nationally in conjunction with local weight management services. The procurement, currently in the tender update stage, includes three lots that vary in the level of individual coaching provided, with a total value of £23,000,000 and a maximum of nine contracts awarded. A market engagement event will be held on Thursday, 22 August from 11 am to 12 noon, with registration required by Tuesday, 20 August.

This re-procurement presents significant business opportunities for service providers specialising in digital health and behavioural lifestyle interventions. Companies with expertise in dietary and nutritional advice, physical activity guidance, and behaviour change methodologies will find this tender well-suited to their capabilities. Particularly, those able to offer tailored services addressing health inequalities across different groups will be highly competitive. Successful bidders will gain the potential to expand their market presence and establish partnerships with NHS England, enhancing their portfolio and contributing to a high-impact national health initiative.
