Community Health Services (Collaborative)
What is being bought
Community services in Mid and South Essex are delivered by three organisations – EPUT, Provide CIC and NELFT.

The provider collaborative is known as the Mid and South Essex Community Collaborative (MSECC). All three community contracts are coterminous. EPUT are hosting the single contract for community services across the ICS with Provide CIC and NELFT as subcontractors. Please refer to the notice by MSEICB reference 010435-2024.

Comparable-procurement analytics
Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Community health services (85323000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.
| Comparison set | Procedures | Reported bids per procedure | Named award suppliers | Price evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Market: CPV division 85 | 38,373 | 1 median · 19.7 average (22,930 of 38,373 with a bid count) | 1.8 average (24,592 of 38,373 with named award suppliers) | 10 comparable price pairs |
| Same buyer | 20 | 1 median · 1 average (15 of 20 with a bid count) | 1 average (16 of 20 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.
Price-outcome signal
Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
