Southampton Medical Outreach Service
Overview
Summary, notice description and lot information
Southampton City Council has recently completed the procurement process for the "Southampton Medical Outreach Service," a contract aimed at educational services for children unable to attend school due to medical needs. The contract arises from a direct award and falls under the "light touch" regime, with the procurement method justified by the absence of competition due to technical reasons. This award was made to HAMWIC Education Trust, with a contract period starting on 1st September 2025 and the potential for extension until 2030.
The service focuses on health and social work and is located in the Southampton region of the UK, under industry category CPV 85000000, with the direct award published on 12th May 2025 and an initial contract value of £1,414,272. Key dates include the end of the standstill period on 22nd May 2025 and a scheduled signature date on 1st June 2025. The Southampton Medical Outreach Service presents viable opportunities for businesses operating in health and education services.
Large organisations with expertise in delivering educational outreach services and collaborating with local authorities would be well-suited to fulfil similar contracts. The direct award nature, while rare, underscores the importance of fostering institutional relationships and technical capabilities that make a supplier uniquely positioned for these opportunities. Business growth may be achieved by ensuring robust service delivery and sustaining relationships with authorities like Southampton City Council to enhance chances for future contract considerations.
Southampton City Council is intending to commission Education Services- Medical Outreach Service, with an anticipated start date of 1st September 2025, for a period of 3 + 2 years. Local Authorities have the statutory duty to arrange full (or part time when appropriate to needs) education for children of compulsory school age who, because of illness, would otherwise not receive suitable education (Section 19 Education Act). The Service Provider will provide outreach tuition for between 16 and 24 Southampton pupils who are unable to attend their usual school due to medical needs.
