The NHS Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly Integrated Care Board has completed the procurement process for the contract titled "Homecare 24-27," which falls under the industry category of Community Health Services (CPV code 85323000). This procurement pertains to the provision of community health services, specifically homecare services delivered to individuals. The procurement method used was a Direct Award under the NHS Provider Selection Regime (PSR) without prior publication of a call for competition.

The contract was awarded to River EXE Health Care Ltd, headquartered in Exmouth, and is set to begin on 1 October 2024 and run until 30 September 2027. The location targeted for service delivery is the Cornwall region (UKK30). This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in community health and homecare services to grow by securing long-term contracts with the NHS.

It is particularly suitable for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in personalised and high-quality health care services that can offer flexibility and adaptability to patient needs. Given the direct award nature of the PSR, businesses already established in the sector and with a record of compliance with NHS standards may find it easier to compete for such opportunities. This contract allows River EXE Health Care Ltd to strengthen its position in the healthcare market by delivering essential services to a key UK region.
