## Summary

The NHS Central East Integrated Care Board is proceeding with the intention to award a contract for "Trauma Informed Counselling" services in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough under the Health Care Services Provider Selection Regime (PSR). The service falls within the health services category, specifically targeting trauma informed counselling, and the procurement location is identified within the regions UKH11 and UKH12. The procurement stage is currently at the award phase, with a standstill period for representations open until 13 May 2026. The contract will commence on 1 April 2026 for a duration of 36 months, with potential changes in ICB structures affecting the contract boundary scheduled for April 2026 and April 2027. The planned procurement method is a limited procedure, allowing for a direct award without prior competition, indicating a repetition of services with the existing provider CHOICES.

This tender presents business growth opportunities for firms already engaged in health services and particularly those with expertise in trauma-informed therapeutic care. Organisations with a substantial background in delivering health services can benefit, especially if they possess the capability to navigate changes in Integrated Care Board boundaries and structures. Given the nature of the direct award procedure under the PSR, businesses maintaining a prestigious relationship with existing providers stand to gain, as the contract seeks to replicate current service provision. The contract, valued at approximately £253,869 over three years, with an option for potential extension, signifies a significant opportunity for established health service providers within the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough areas to expand or secure long-term engagement within the regional NHS framework.
