Summary, notice description and lot information
The procurement process, conducted by the NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board, focuses on the provision of a Children's Bereavement Service. Classified under miscellaneous health services, this service is a part of an awarded contract, identified by QHM-2025-7421 ICBCD/StCuthHospBSCYP/23-24. The procurement falls under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) and is not subject to the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.
Located in Sunderland, the procurement process involves a contract with a start date of 1 April 2025 and an end date of 31 March 2026, valued at £60,866. The tender is in the award stage, following a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition, and was designed outside the directive's scope. This tender offers business growth opportunities, particularly for organisations proficient in delivering healthcare services.
The focus on children's bereavement care makes it an ideal opportunity for healthcare providers with experience in similar services to demonstrate their capacity to meet crucial service demands. St Cuthbert’s Hospice, an existing service provider located in Durham, UK, has been recognised as a suitable candidate due to its proven capability to meet the contract’s requirements. Businesses with a strong track record in quality and cost-effective service delivery within the community health sector would be well-positioned to engage with similar future opportunities.
