NHS South West London Integrated Care Board - Planned Care Services

The NHS South West London Integrated Care Board has awarded a contract as of May 2025 for the provision of planned health care services. This contract involves various procedures, including orthopaedic non-trauma, digestive system endoscopic, and eye surgeries, and will be executed primarily in the London region (UKI). The procurement process followed a direct award under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023.

The contract was signed on 1 April 2025, has a value of £3,666,238, and is set for two years, with a potential one-year extension. The contracting authority was guided by NHS South West London's Contracting and Procurement Group and Financial Planning, ensuring no conflicts of interest were identified. This procurement is classified under the health services category.

This contract offers significant opportunities for firms in the health care sector, particularly those specialising in patient-focused services and non-NHS organisations as it emphasises patient choice. Businesses that provide or support orthopaedic, digestive, eye, and reproductive health services would be well-suited to compete, potentially leveraging existing service capabilities to extend their market reach. The use of the Direct Award Process B in this procurement highlights opportunities for existing providers with established service delivery frameworks to collaborate or subcontract, thus encouraging business growth and enhancing service delivery in the sector.
