The 2023 National Audit of Inpatient Falls (NAIF) report on 2022 clinical data identified that more than 60,000 people sustained a femoral fracture in England and Wales in 2022 (NHFD) due to a fall. Of these, 2,033 occurred in inpatient settings. Falls prevention services aim to reduce people's chance of falling by tackling risk factors, improving strength and balance whilst allowing people to remain well and live independently at home. The services aim to: • Provide falls support planning and risk assessments for individuals and their homes, • Develop person centred plans to maximise older people's potential for independent living, • Reduce the risks of falls and injuries by improving strength and balance, • Reduce hospital admissions as a result of falls, • Educate and raise falls prevention awareness with multi-organisations, agencies, care homes and the public, • Deliver interventions for falls preventions in both home and Residential Care settings The overall aim of the Framework Agreement is to provide Relevant Authorities with a fully compliant solution for Falls Prevention, Rehabilitation and Recovery Services to supplement the delivery of patient care in line with the NHS' core Key Performance Indicators and standards. This Framework will be formed of three Lots: Lot 1 - Falls prevention services Lot 2 - Post fall rehabilitation and recovery services Lot 3 - Combination of all services The Framework has been established under The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 and The Health Services (Provider Selection Regime) (Wales) Regulations 2025 (and as amended) (together the PSR) for use by all Relevant Authorities (and any future successors to these organisations). "Relevant Authority" is defined in section 12ZB(7) of the National Health Service Act 2006 and in section 10A(9) of the National Health Service (Wales) Act 2006. It means a combined authority, an integrated care board, a local authority in England, NHS England, an NHS foundation trust or an NHS trust established under section 25 of the National Health Service Act 2006, a county council or county borough council in Wales, a local health board established under section 11 of the National Health Service (Wales) Act 2006, a National Health Service trust established under section 18 of the National Health Service (Wales) Act 2006, or a special health authority established under section 22 of the National Health Service (Wales) Act 2006. For the avoidance of doubt, any successor bodies of any of the above entities shall be entitled to place Orders and shall be deemed Relevant Authorities for the purposes of this Framework. The term will be 4 years from the commencement. In accordance with Regulation 17 of The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 and Regulation 17 of The Health Services (Provider Selection Regime) (Wales) Regulations 2025, the Framework will be open to applications from new potential Providers during the Term of the Framework. Previously appointed Providers are NOT obliged to re-apply. This notice concerns the opening of the Framework opportunity for applications from new potential Providers. For reference, the tender notice advertising the original establishment of this Framework was 2025/S 000-061162 published on 1st October 2025.

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Health and social work services (85000000); 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 | 11,822 | 1 median · 41.8 average (5,004 of 11,822 with a bid count) | 2.2 average (5,706 of 11,822 with named award suppliers) | 10 comparable price pairs |
| Same buyer | 23 | 1 median · 1.5 average (6 of 23 with a bid count) | 1 average (7 of 23 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Delivery region: UKC | 584 | 1 median · 3.8 average (392 of 584 with a bid count) | 1.2 average (400 of 584 with named award suppliers) | Not published |
| Similar published value (0.5×–2×) | 387 | 3.5 median · 442.8 average (10 of 387 with a bid count) | 7.5 average (10 of 387 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.
£11,060,192 is the median lowest-valid-bid benchmark for the broad CPV market sample, against this procedure’s published value of £17,000,000.
This is a historical comparator, not a bid-price forecast or a guaranteed saving. It excludes records where the published values cannot be sensibly compared and does not adjust for lot structure, quality weighting, framework terms or scope.
