Forensic Inpatients GP Services Pre-Market Engagement - PROC.90.025

The Birmingham & Solihull Mental Health Foundation Trust is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process titled "Forensic Inpatients GP Services Pre-Market Engagement - PROC.90.025". The initiative, managed by the Birmingham and Solihull Procurement Collaborative on behalf of the Trust, falls under the services category, specifically focusing on general practitioner services in forensic inpatient settings. The procurement process includes a Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) and is seeking expressions of interest by 5th September 2025.

Following this, participants will receive a PME questionnaire and have the opportunity to meet the authority on 12th September. The procurement is being conducted in Birmingham, UK, with a potential service period starting on 1st January 2026. This tender invites participation mainly from organisations interested in providing general practitioner services for forensic inpatients, presenting a profitable growth opportunity, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs).

The service has a projected gross value of £202,800 and allows for contract renewals, offering a substantial business opportunity. Companies specialising in healthcare services or those looking to expand into the public sector healthcare market will find this tender particularly relevant. The process under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) enforces compliance and might favour businesses with existing expertise or strategic interest in the mental health services domain within the central government public authority framework.
