Autism Diagnostic Assessment
Overview
Summary, notice description and lot information
The NHS Kent and Medway Integrated Care Board have completed the procurement process for the provision of Autism Diagnostic Assessment services in the Kent & Medway region. Classified under health services, this contract was awarded following a limited procurement method under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, and the Procurement Act 2023 does not apply. This process culminated with the award notice, dated 12th December 2025.
The service is scheduled to operate from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2028, with an option to extend for an additional 12 months. The awarded supplier, Psicon Ltd, will deliver the service despite there being no guarantee of activity, as the contract's value is contingent upon the volume of services rendered. This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in healthcare services, particularly those offering diagnostic assessments.
Companies with capabilities in autism diagnostics and service provisions stand to benefit substantially from this arrangement. With Psicon Ltd already engaged, there might be potential for collaboration or subcontracting opportunities. The established relationship between the NHS Kent and Medway Integrated Care Board and Psicon Ltd reflects a targeted procurement approach, suitable for businesses with a well-defined expertise in the region’s healthcare sector.
This award could serve as a benchmark for similar upcoming procurements under the Provider Selection Regime.
