NHS Somerset Integrated Care Board ("the ICB") intents to award a contract to an existing provider, following a Provider Selection Regime Direct Award Process C whilst a competitive process is undertaken. The Somerset Phoenix Service (also referred to as the Child Sexual Abuse Support Service, CSAS) provides specialist support for children and young people (CYP) aged 5-18 years in Somerset who have experienced sexual abuse. It delivers age-appropriate, trauma-informed interventions to mitigate the psychological and emotional impact of abuse, improving mental health and wellbeing. The service also supports parents, carers and professionals, equipping them with tools to respond effectively. Scope of Services The Somerset Phoenix Service offers a comprehensive package of therapeutic and emotional wellbeing support for CYP who have experienced sexual abuse but do not meet the threshold for specialist mental health services. The service provides: • Individual and group therapeutic interventions, including counselling, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (TF-CBT), play therapy and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR). • Support for parents and carers, helping them to understand the impact of sexual abuse and how to aid their child's recovery. • Training and guidance for professionals, including education, healthcare and social care staff, to improve responses to sexual abuse. • A trauma-informed, child-centred approach, ensuring services are delivered in a safe, confidential, and accessible environment. The service prioritises younger children and those who have experienced sexual abuse through physical contact or extreme non-contact abuse. To prevent disruption to vital services, the ICB has taken the decision to directly award a six-month contract whilst the procurement is undertaken. The six-month contract value is £190,218 and will cover the period from 1st April 2025 to 30th September 2025. This advert is published NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioners.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Counselling services (85312320); 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.

Market: CPV division 8538,3721 median · 19.7 average (22,929 of 38,372 with a bid count)1.8 average (24,591 of 38,372 with named award suppliers)10 comparable price pairs

“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.
