In plain English

Birmingham & Solihull Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust has decided to award a contract for early help mental health support to its existing provider, without running an open tender, under the NHS Provider Selection Regime. This notice is an intention-to-award announcement, meaning the contract is not open for bids and the current provider is expected to keep the work.

Good fit for: Not applicable - this isn't an open competition, so new suppliers can't bid for this contract.

The catch (with the notice's own words):
  • Not an open tender - direct award to incumbent This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award under the PSR.
  • Only a short window to challenge the decision Representations by providers must be made to decision makers by 26 March 2025

What the buyer says

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 [email address on the official notice]. 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.
