## Summary

The NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board intends to award a contract for the Bradford & Airedale Mental Health Carer Support Service under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR). This involves a direct award process to continue services by the existing provider, Making Space, with a contract value of £696,046 covering the period from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2029. The procurement falls within the Health services category and is centred in Bradford, United Kingdom. The procurement method employed is limited, with the intention to award notice dated 13 March 2026 marking the commencement of the Standstill Period. Representations must be made to NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board by 25 March 2026.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses with expertise in health service delivery, specifically in mental health carer support, to engage with a significant public sector contract. Companies that can offer continuity and established relationships may find themselves particularly well-suited to compete in future procurements. While this specific contract is to be awarded through the continuation of services by the existing provider due to satisfactory performance, other businesses in the health sector in Bradford or similar localities can benefit from observing procurement processes within the NHS framework and preparing competitive bids for upcoming opportunities.
