PSR - Direct Award C - Provision of Adult and Children's Community Services
Overview
Summary, notice description and lot information
The procurement process led by Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust pertains to the provision of Adult and Children's Community Services, classified under health services (CPV: 85100000). This service includes a range of clinical healthcare services delivered in community settings across the regions of Dartford, Gravesham, Swanley, Medway, and Swale in the UKJ4 and UKJ41 regions of Kent. The contract, valued at £176,586,019 and £171,070,298 respectively for the different lots, has been awarded as part of a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) under the Health Care Services Regulations 2023.
This procurement utilised a direct award process without a prior call for competition and was officially awarded on 29th August 2025, with a commencement date of 27th October 2025 lasting until 26th October 2030, with an option for a three-year extension. This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for businesses specializing in healthcare services that operate within community settings. While the current provider, HCRG Care Services Limited and Medway Community Healthcare CIC, has been deemed capable, other businesses within the health services market could compete for such contracts in future cycles, particularly if they can offer innovation in community healthcare delivery models.
Businesses focusing on delivering quality clinical services, adaptable and scalable healthcare solutions, or those able to integrate with existing healthcare frameworks in Kent would be well-positioned to benefit from such procurement opportunities.
