## Summary

NHS Thames Valley Integrated Care Board commissions adult ADHD services to meet local demand, support patient choice and maintain safe, high-quality provision without undermining other local ADHD services. The awarded service is for adults; the wider commissioning title also refers to children, but this award covers adult provision only. Harrow Health HIC is the selected provider. The contract sits within the wider system of ADHD services, with referrals enabling patients to access alternative providers where available and clinically appropriate. The stated delivery area is the Thames Valley, with Oxford identified as the commissioner’s location. The service is a healthcare service (CPV 85140000).

The contract has been awarded to Harrow Health HIC through Direct Award Process B under the Provider Selection Regime; no competitive tender was required. The award decision considered service continuity, provider capacity and quality, and patient choice. Patient choice was the sole stated award criterion, weighted at 100%; price carried no weight. The contract began on 1 September 2026 and was signed on 23 September 2026. Its initial term is 24 months, with two possible extensions of up to 12 months each. The published contract value is £1, but this represents a cost-per-case, activity-based payment model, not a guaranteed minimum spend: payments depend on actual patient referrals and activity. One bid is recorded. The award is active.

For providers of adult ADHD services, this award shows that NHS Thames Valley ICB uses the Provider Selection Regime’s Direct Award Process B to commission activity-based care, with patient choice, continuity, capacity and quality central to the decision. A credible provider would need to demonstrate the ability to deliver safe, high-quality adult ADHD services at a capacity suited to local referrals, while fitting into existing pathways and supporting access to alternative providers where clinically appropriate. The service is part of a wider local provision, so the ability to work alongside other providers without adversely affecting local ADHD services is relevant. The selected organisation is a community interest company and is recorded as an SME, showing that a smaller provider was selected for this requirement. No specific professional accreditations or technical qualifications are identified.
