## Summary

The Essex Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust has awarded a contract for "Inquiry Psychology Support for Staff" under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, specifically for psychiatric or psychologist services. This contract was awarded through a limited procurement method, bypassing prior publication due to the lack of realistic alternative providers. The contract, beginning on 1st July 2024 and expiring on 31st March 2025, has a value of £7,070. The procurement process has reached the award stage, with the delivery location specified as the UKH3 region.

This tender offers a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in mental health services, particularly those with a strong focus on staff welfare and psychological support. The NHS Foundation Trusts' reliance on established providers and the clear procurement route indicate a stable and potentially recurring demand for these services. Enterprises with expertise in delivering healthcare support, especially those that can navigate the regulatory framework of the Health Care Services sector, would be well-suited to engage in this opportunity, possibly leading to long-term partnerships with public health organisations.
