## Summary

The NHS Central East Integrated Care Board is overseeing a procurement process for mental health support services in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. This initiative, classified under the health services category with CPV code 85100000, falls at the award stage according to the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) regulations. The procurement follows a limited method without a prior call for competition, intending to award a contract to Centre Thirty Three Young People's Counselling and Information Service, subject to a standstill period ending on 13th May 2026. The recommendation for awarding was approved earlier in January, and the contract is set to span three years starting from 1st April 2026, with an option for a two-year extension.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in health and mental well-being services, particularly those that offer supplementary or complementary support aligned with NHS standards. Given the planned extensive systems changes in ICB structures due to upcoming mergers and boundary adjustments, agile and established providers within the regional UKH11 and UKH12 areas, capable of navigating organisational transitions, will find the process advantageous. The procurement not only presents growth potential but also aligns with ongoing NHS strategies, thereby appealing to businesses focused on sustainable community health improvements.
