Community perinatal peer support workers
Overview
Summary, notice description and lot information
Birmingham & Solihull Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust has awarded a contract under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 for the provision of community perinatal peer support workers, classified under miscellaneous health services (CPV code 85140000). The contract was formally awarded on 12 March 2025, following the decision by the BSMHFT Sustainability Board on 27 February 2025. The contract services will commence on 1 April 2025 and conclude on 31 March 2026, with a total value of £108,497.
This contract was procured using a direct award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, as it falls outside the scope of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those experienced in providing peer support workers. The contract, awarded to Acacia Family Support, demonstrates the need for reliable partners capable of delivering under previous contractual arrangements.
Businesses with a strong track record in community-based health support, especially those focusing on maternal and perinatal care, would be well-suited to explore similar future opportunities within the Birmingham and Solihull region.
This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intention to award notice. The awarding of this contract is subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award.
The publication of this notice marks the start of the standstill period. Representations by providers must be made to decision makers by 25 March 2025 to gail.bloxham@nhs.net. This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award under the PSR.
The award decision was approved by BSMHFT Sustainability Board on 27 February 2025. No conflicts were declared. Key criteria were presented and the current provider is able to demonstrate that they have delivered under their previous contractual arrangement and BSMHFT is confident that this delivery will continue under a new contract.
