The South East London Integrated Care Board (SEL ICB), acting as the coordinating commissioner, has awarded a contract to Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) Regulations 2023. This contract pertains to hospital and related services, classified under CPV code 85110000, with an initial contract period from 1st April 2024 to 31st March 2027, and may extend until 31st March 2029. The contract was finalised following a direct award process and involves collaboration with several NHS Integrated Care Boards in the London and Kent regions.

A key modification made on 17th June 2025 has raised the annual contract value to £720,141,000, bringing the total lifetime value to £3,600,705,000. The procurement method, based on the urgent need for services, simplifies the procedures typically mandated by the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. This tender opportunity provides significant growth potential for businesses in the healthcare sector, particularly entities with capabilities in providing acute or specialised healthcare services.

Given the nature of the services required, NHS Foundation Trusts, or similar large-scale healthcare providers with the capacity to deliver essential or commissioner-requested services, would be well-suited to compete in this procurement process. The contract involves substantial collaborative elements with multiple regional NHS organisations, which may further encourage consortium bids that can effectively manage the geographical reach and integrated service delivery necessary for the fulfilment of the contract requirements.
