## Summary

Cornwall Council is overseeing a procurement process for the provision of sexual health services within Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly, classified under health and social work services. The process, initiated through tendering, has culminated in several awards across four distinct lots: Sexual and Reproductive Health Clinical Services, Digital Sexual & Reproductive Health Service, Young People - Relationships & Sex Education and Condom Distribution Scheme, and Community Based Prevention. These services are crucial for fulfilling statutory health obligations, with contracts commencing on 1 December 2026, extending potentially to 2037. The procurement was executed through an open competitive flexible procedure, emphasising quality, price, and social value, with key deadlines such as the standstill period ending on 27 March 2026 and signature scheduled for 31 July 2026.

These contracts offer substantial opportunities for business growth, particularly for SMEs and VCSEs interested in expanding their services in the health sector. With values reaching over £34 million across the lots, businesses specialising in digital health solutions, community health education, clinical services, and preventative health initiatives are well-positioned to benefit from participating in such tenders. This procurement underscores the significance of competitive bidding in enhancing local health service delivery, encouraging businesses to innovate and provide high-quality health services tailored to regional needs.

### Planning Information

Cornwall Council is conducting a soft market assessment to gain an understanding of the potential level of interest across the Voluntary, NHS, Independent and Private Sector for the provision of Sexual and Reproductive Health Services across Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly.
It is intended that the responses supplied will enable the Council to develop a business proposal prior to re-commissioning local services. Any such proposal would be subject to the development and approval of a business case, and, as such, this exercise implies no commercial commitment. This is not a formal tender document.
Participation of this soft market assessment will not prejudice suppliers participating in any future procurement.
If you are interested in this area of service provision and also helping with our assessment of the market, please complete the "Information Required" section at the end of this notice along with any additional information you consider to be relevant and return this via the Due North / Supplying the South-West messaging system by midnight 6th June 2025.
A formal provider engagement event is scheduled for 30th June, please save this date in your calendars. It is likely that we will split the event into two or three sessions, but for now please save the day in your calendar.
