Summary of the contracting process
The procurement process for the "AccEPT Clinic Service" was initiated by the Devon Partnership NHS Trust, seeking to address significant gaps in the provision of psychological services for adults with serious mental illness in Devon, UK. With a focus on psychiatrist or psychologist services, this service requirement falls under the "services" industry category.
The procurement method was a limited procedure without prior publication, aligned with the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The contract was awarded on 1st August 2025, with services scheduled to run until 31st March 2026, valued at £148,072. The stage of this process is the award of a contract, following a direct award process, signalling a completed status.
The target providers are ideally positioned to offer innovative, evidence-informed care catering to underserved patient groups in the mental health sector. Large organisations with a background in healthcare service provision, particularly those already collaborating within regional partnerships like the University of Exeter, would benefit from engaging in such contracts due to established local influence and the capacity for scalability in service delivery.
