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 Provider Selection Regime (PSR) for the provision of community perinatal peer support workers. The procurement falls under the miscellaneous health services category, with services being delivered within the Birmingham and Solihull regions (UKG). The contract, valued at £110,055, will commence on 1 April 2025 and end on 31 March 2026.
No conflicts were declared during the award approval by the BSMHFT Sustainability Board on 27 February 2025. Key criteria for selecting the provider included demonstrated delivery under previous contracts, ensuring continuity of service under the new contractual arrangement. This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those focusing on perinatal support and community health interventions.
The direct award procedure indicates a preference for providers with proven reliability in similar services, making it suitable for established organisations in the healthcare sector. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in mental health support and peer worker schemes are well-positioned to compete, especially if they can demonstrate successful prior delivery in this field. Being involved in this contract can help bolster an organisation's reputation and expand their footprint in the health services industry.
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.
