## Summary

The procurement process conducted by the Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust focuses on the provision of Tics and Tourettes service in Knowsley, classified under the health and social work services industry (CPV Code 85000000). The procurement followed a direct award process under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) Regulations. The initial process had started with the intention to award, and by 14th January 2026, the contract was formally awarded to Mersey and West Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. The contract, valued at £20,000, spans from 1st November 2025 to 31st October 2026. The process involved a limited procurement method, thus bypassing the need for a call for competition, with final decisions ratified by the Senior Leadership Team of the Community Care Division.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specializing in healthcare services, particularly those with experience or expertise in managing Tics and Tourettes services. While the current process was a limited procurement specifically favouring an existing provider due to their satisfactory performance in prior contracts, businesses in related fields should monitor such tenders for future opportunities. Those looking to leverage similar contracts should focus on ensuring compliance with PSR guidelines and maintaining high-quality service standards, which are critical in securing these types of awards in the healthcare sector.
