Summary of the contracting process
NHS Bedfordshire, Luton and Milton Keynes Integrated Care Board has announced its intention to award a contract for community and mental health services to the Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust. This process is part of the Provider Selection Regime, under the Health Care Services Regulations 2023, meaning standard Public Contract Regulations do not apply.
The contract, set to commence on 1st April 2026 and conclude on 31st March 2028, will serve adults and children within Milton Keynes. It is currently in the award stage, marking the start of the standstill period, with representations from other providers due by 11th September 2025. The procurement method used is a limited process, specifically an award procedure without prior call for competition.
With an approximate contract value of £162,951,372, successful bidders can gain significant financial growth and enhance their reputations by partnering with a prominent public health organisation. Though the contract is planned for an existing supplier, expanding entities in the health sector may find value in understanding competitive dynamics and service expectations in such large-scale healthcare projects.
