Paediatric Dietetics Service

The Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust has completed the procurement process for a Paediatric Dietetics Service, intended to support a paediatric eating disorder clinic in the BaNES, Swindon and Wiltshire CAMHS service. The procurement falls within the Health and social work services industry category and follows a limited procurement method, specifically a direct award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition due to the Provider Selection Regime. The contract, announced on 19th March 2025, has been awarded to Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust for a value of GBP 21,544 and includes an option for extension until 31st March 2027.

This award marks the start of the standstill period, allowing other providers to make representations within eight working days. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the health sector, particularly those specialising in paediatric dietetics and eating disorder treatments. It highlights the demand for specialised health services in the Wiltshire region, providing a platform for experienced and high-quality service providers to partner with NHS organisations.

Companies with a proven track record in similar healthcare services and capable of meeting the stringent quality and regulatory standards outlined by the NHS would be well-positioned to compete for such contracts in the future. Engaging in this procurement process could enhance a company’s reputation, expand its portfolio, and contribute to long-term business growth.
