Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham procured community health services for children and families in Hammersmith and Fulham. The planned package covered three distinct services: health visiting for children aged 0–5; school nursing for children and young people aged 5–19, extending to 25 for those with special educational needs and disabilities; and maternity support in the community from pregnancy to a child’s second birthday. School nursing includes safeguarding, support for complex health needs and the National Child Measurement Programme. The maternity service is designed around outreach, early-years support and work alongside existing services and Family Hubs, including antenatal, breastfeeding and maternal mental health support.

The process is recorded as complete following an open competitive procedure under the Provider Selection Regime. Central London Community Healthcare NHS Trust was selected for the health-visiting lot, and the contract is active and signed. Its recorded contract value is £19,289,837; the wider procurement estimate was £29.4 million. The contract was signed on 24 September 2026. The planned initial contract period is 1,080 days, with an option for two further two-year extensions described for this lot. The tender deadline was 10 November 2025. Evaluation for the health-visiting lot weighted quality at 70% and price at 30%, within criteria covering quality and innovation, value, integration and sustainability, access and choice, reducing inequalities, and social value. The school-nursing and maternity lots are listed as active, but no awards for them are recorded.

The relevant market is community health provision for children, young people and families, particularly suppliers able to deliver a coordinated health-visiting service for children under five in Hammersmith and Fulham. The selection criteria required CQC registration for the health-visiting and school-nursing lots; this is an important credential for providers competing for comparable work. The award went to a large NHS community health trust, indicating that an established provider with the capacity to deliver local services at scale was selected. For future competition, credible suppliers should be able to evidence high-quality, innovative care, value, integration with partner services, sustainable delivery, improved access and reduced health inequalities, and social value. The buyer’s requirement also shows demand for services aligned with safeguarding and early intervention.
