Provision of bereavement couselling
Overview
Summary, notice description and lot information
Birmingham & Solihull Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust is in the award stage of the procurement process for the provision of bereavement counselling services. Classified under "Miscellaneous health services" with CPV code 85140000, this service contract has been awarded under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The procurement method utilised is a direct award process without prior publication of a call for competition.
The standstill period allowed representations until 26 March 2025, following an approval on 3 March 2025. The contract, valued at £43,263, starts on 1 April 2025 and ends on 31 March 2026, and will be delivered in the UKG region. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the health services sector, specifically those specialising in mental health and bereavement support.
Large-scale health service providers, particularly those with a track record of delivering high-quality services under previous contractual arrangements, would be well-suited to compete. By securing such contracts, businesses can enhance their reputation and expand their service offerings, leading to substantial growth and stability in the public service domain.
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 26 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 MHPC Commissioning Committee on 3 March 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.
