## Summary

BIRMINGHAM & SOLIHULL MENTAL HEALTH NHS FOUNDATION TRUST is managing the procurement process for the provision of podiatry services for adult mental health secure inpatients. This contract falls under the services category within the 'Miscellaneous health services' industry. The procurement employs a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, bypassing the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The notice was issued on 4th April 2025 following the decision approval by the BSMHFT Sustainability Board on 27th February 2025. The contract is scheduled to start on 1st April 2025 and end on 31st March 2026, with the opportunity for future extensions based on delivery criteria.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in healthcare services, specifically those experienced in providing podiatric care.

By securing this contract, businesses can expand their service portfolio within NHS frameworks, fostering engagement and growth in the healthcare sector. Additionally, the steady contract value of £38,623 provides a reliable revenue stream for the duration of the contract term.
