Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership-Procurement Services, hosted by Velindre University NHS Trust, is currently in the planning stage of a major procurement process titled "Alliance Commissioning MH/LD +ND." This initiative, set under the category of health services, aims to transform the commissioning of services for Mental Health, Learning Disabilities, Dementia, and Neurodivergence within the Gwent region. The planned start date for the contract is 1st September 2026, continuing through to 31st August 2036.

This tender is adopting an alliance-based contracting model, valuing collaboration over traditional competitive approaches. The total estimated gross value of the contract is £2,220,000 with a net amount of £1,850,000, and it is scheduled for a future notice release on 1st July 2025. This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses within the healthcare sector, especially those with expertise in community health services and experience partnering with public authorities on collaborative models of care.

It is particularly well-suited for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that focus on integrated care models and efficient service delivery. Such businesses can leverage this tender to expand their service offerings, establish crucial partnerships with the NHS, and directly contribute to improved health outcomes in the Gwent region.

Notice Description

Aneurin Bevan University Health Board (ABUHB) is planning to transform the way we commission Community Voluntary Sector (Third Sector Services) for Mental Health, Learning Disabilities, Dementia and Neurodivergence services in Gwent. We currently commission services, based on a traditional competitive tendering process, usually contracting with one service provider for one service area. We usually draw up the specification, based on a population needs assessment, and enter into a formal procurement tendering process, which sets individual voluntary sector organisations against each other in competition.

We need to move away from this model to a more collaborative, alliance based contracting model or approach. The Alliance model enables us to become equal partners as part of a specific partnership, focusing on citizen outcomes within a seamless system of care and support for our citizens.
