# Reopening of NHS Devon care and therapy framework

NHS Devon is reopening a four-year framework established in January 2026 for three service lots: live-in care at home for all ages, complex care for all ages, and trusted assessments, spot therapy and clinical psychology for children and young people. The combined maximum framework value is £61,297,064 excluding VAT; it is a ceiling, not guaranteed expenditure. Providers already admitted need not reapply, while previously unsuccessful bidders may apply again. New applications are due through Atamis by 11 November 2026 at 12:00 local time. Price is not the only award criterion; the full criteria are in the procurement documents.
