## Summary

Shropshire Community Health NHS Trust procured autism spectrum disorder (ASD) assessment services. The requirement is described as ASD assessments and is classified as health services. The work is associated with the Trust, based in Shrewsbury, and delivery is in the West Midlands region represented by the supplied location data. The process concerns one service requirement, rather than a broader package of healthcare work. This gives a clear indication of the relevant market: providers able to assess people for ASD and deliver those assessment services for an NHS community health trust. The award was made to Help for Psychology, a small or medium-sized enterprise, indicating that a specialist provider of this scale was selected for the requirement.

The procurement is complete and an award has been made to Help for Psychology. The Trust used a limited procedure without a prior call for competition, citing repetition of existing services; one bid was recorded. The stated evaluation criterion was price. The contract was signed on 19 October 2026 and is active. Its value is £101,400. The process description states that the standstill period ends on 31 October 2026, after which the contract is to be entered into subject to completion of documentation. The single lot is marked cancelled, while the award and contract are recorded as active; the published outcome names the supplier and gives the contract value and signing date. No contract end date or duration is stated in the process data.

For providers of autism assessment services, this award is evidence that Shropshire Community Health NHS Trust purchases ASD assessments as a repeat requirement. The buyer relied on a provider for an existing service requirement, and the stated rationale was repetition of existing services. Help for Psychology, an SME, was selected, so the contract demonstrates that a specialist supplier of this scale can serve the Trust. A credible competitor for a comparable future requirement would need to deliver ASD assessments and offer a price that performs well against the buyer’s evaluation basis. This opportunity is specifically relevant to organisations with the clinical capability and operational capacity to undertake autism assessments for community health services in the Shrewsbury area; general healthcare provision alone would not establish a fit.
