Summary of the contracting process

The NHS South West London Integrated Care Board is managing a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) for the provision of Primary Care at Scale (PCAS) services, with an intention to award contracts under a framework agreement. This process is governed by the Health Care Services Regulations 2023 and is not under the Procurement Act 2023. The procurement is focused on health services within various locations including Croydon, Kingston, Merton, Richmond, Sutton, and Wandsworth, all part of South West London. It is currently in the award stage, with a standstill period allowing representations until midnight on 27 March 2026. The framework agreement will begin on 1 April 2026 and run until 28 February 2029, with a significant total value estimated at £52 million (exclusive of VAT). The procurement method employed is the open procedure, allowing for competitive participation.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses in the health services sector with the requisite competencies, as outlined in the procurement documents. It is especially well-suited for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in general practitioner and medical practice services, with active participation from providers such as ASHTONS Hospital Pharmacy Services Ltd and Croydon GP Collaborative Ltd. With a framework agreement structured to last for nearly three years, there is ample opportunity for companies to establish lasting collaborations and secure significant fiscal benefits, contributing to growth and stability in their operations. Potential suppliers who are not currently party to the framework are encouraged to submit tenders to expand their outreach within the NHS South West London Integrated Care Board's PCAS initiative.
