The Provision of Digital Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Associated Support
Overview
Summary, notice description and lot information
The Ministry of Defence has awarded a contract for the provision of digital cognitive behavioural therapy and associated support services to address the mental health needs of 5,000 Armed Forces members annually. The contract, valued at £47,000, was granted through a single tender action to the Midlands Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust. Located in Lichfield, England, the procurement falls under the category of miscellaneous health services and was finalised in the award stage.
The contract will commence on 1 April 2025 and extend until 31 May 2026, with the tender period having ended on 28 February 2025. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses within the healthcare sector, particularly those offering digital therapeutic platforms and associated support services. SMEs and VCSEs specialising in mental health services, digital health technologies, or those with capabilities in delivering cognitive behavioural therapy will find this contract particularly relevant.
The engagement of Defence GPs and the requirement for digital tools and resources underscores the importance of robust and user-friendly digital platforms that can facilitate patient support and GP engagement effectively.
To provide access to digital cognitive behavioural therapy (incorporating but not limited to the core provision of CBTi for Anxiety and CBTi for Depression and CBTi for Insomnia) to meet the needs of a population of 5,000 Armed Forces members per annum for whom digital CBT will be a step 2 option within their care pathway via GP referral. Each patient from this total population who chooses to engage with CBTi following GP referral will be given 12 weeks access as a minimum. Each patient from this total population who chooses to engage with CBTi Insomnia following GP referral will be given access to the 5 module CBT-I programme.
This initial access does not exclude them from re-accessing this option again in the same 12-month period should that need arise. The package should be unsupported and facilitate only digital platform access. Patient guided support in contrast will be facilitated via regular Defence GP contact.
In support of Defence GP engagement, the provision must include GP access to digital tools/resources which facilitate understanding of the digital platform and allow onward support to the patient.
