Summary of the contracting process

The NHS North Central London Integrated Care Board has commenced the award process for a contract titled "End of Life - C405882," which falls under the geriatric services category. This contract pertains to health and social care services for patients with progressive, life-limiting illnesses, to be delivered in the UKI region, specifically London. The procurement method followed a limited approach, meaning it was awarded without prior publication due to falling outside standard regulations, guided by the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. While the contract is intended for the existing supplier, St John's Hospice, the final award decision will only be made after the standstill period ending on 26 February 2026. The contract term is set from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027, with an annual and lifetime value of £1,098,113.00.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in geriatric health services and those capable of innovating within this domain. The decision-making criteria underscore quality, innovation, value, integration, collaboration, service sustainability, social value, and improved access with reduced health inequalities. Companies with expertise and established capabilities in these areas stand to benefit. While the direct award limits competitive bidding, understanding the decision criteria used by the NHS North Central London Integrated Care Board could offer insights into future opportunities and guide businesses in aligning their service offerings to public procurement standards for health services. Businesses adept at fulfilling such criteria may consider engagement with similar or upcoming contracts.
