## Summary

The Central London Community Healthcare NHS Trust is overseeing a procurement process titled "Child Development Service (CDS) in Brent for CLCH ONW", classified under health services. This initiative, located in Brent, London, is in the award stage, with a contract awarded on 1 March 2026, and is aimed at supporting the recovery of waiting lists for ASD and community paediatric assessments. The procurement method employed is a direct award under the Countess of Chester Framework for Insourced and Outsourced Clinical Services, with no prior publication of a call for competition. The contract value amounts to £524,000 and is supported by non-recurrent funding from the North West London Integrated Care Board (NWL ICB).

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in paediatric health services, particularly those with expertise in developmental assessments and autism spectrum disorder evaluations. London Autism Clinic Ltd, a small or medium-sized enterprise based in London, is already involved as a supplier. The scope of the contract, which includes early identification and management of developmental disabilities in children, underscores the need for providers with focused capabilities in child health, thus appealing to specialised health service providers seeking growth through service delivery and broader community integration within a well-established framework agreement.

## Notice

The purpose of this contract is to utilise the time-limited, non-recurrent funding provided by the North West London Integrated Care Board (NWL ICB) to CLCH to support the waiting list recovery of ASD and general community paediatric assessments. Therefore, the contract will be for a 6 month period with the option to extend for a further 2 month period, but there will be no additional funding for this extension period it will simply be time for the chosen provider to complete the number of required assessments within the financial envelope.

The core requirements are: 
* To provide early recognition and effective assessment and support to disabled children; consider the health needs of children with developmental disabilities and refer to hospital based and other services as and when appropriate.
