II.2.4) Description of the procurement
Due to the limited availability of medically managed detoxification facilities in the South West and particularly the footprint area covered by the consortium, and following the closure of our contracted provider of complex inpatient detox in June 2025 (ACER unit; Bristol operated by AWP NHS Trust), NSC, on behalf of the consortium, used PSR Direct Award process B to contact all complex inpatient NHS facilities in the country asking for expressions of interest in providing services to the consortium, with a view to entering into a contract with all applicable providers and offering patient choice.
Two EOI were received, one was deemed unsuitable and therefore a contract was awarded to the one suitable provider.
The contract commences on 1 October 2025 until 31 March 2026, with the option to extend for a further 12 +12 months should the grant be forthcoming for a further period. The end date including any extensions is 31 March 2028.
Value depends on usage with a maximum value for 2025/26 - £90,000
