11+ Stammering - Mid Essex
Overview
Summary, notice description and lot information
The NHS Mid and South Essex Integrated Care Board has awarded a 14-month contract for the provision of the 11+ Stammering Service in the Mid Essex area under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. This urgent award, valued at £36,500, uses a limited procurement method without prior publication due to the critical need for continuity of care. The contract was awarded to the Michael Palin Centre to mitigate risks to patient health and ensure seamless transitions in children's education and development stages.
The service is set to start on 1st February 2026 and will run until 31st March 2027, aligning with current Community Collaborative block contract periods as part of an ongoing transformation programme. This tender offers significant growth opportunities especially for businesses well-versed in community health services, specifically in the area of speech therapy. Companies that can demonstrate expertise in managing urgent care situations or who have experience in healthcare provisions under pressing needs could find this contract particularly compelling.
Additionally, suppliers familiar with navigating the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) and those capable of contributing to continuity of care under transformational health programmes would be highly suited to engage in similar future opportunities. This contract not only offers a financial proposition but also a chance to establish a foothold in the healthcare sector within the Essex region.
