Summary of the contracting process

NHS South West London Integrated Care Board commissioned acute hospital and related healthcare services for patients living in the London Borough of Croydon. The requirement is a secure, specialist general-practice service accessed through referrals from clinicians across the borough. It is intended to support agreed referral pathways and provide timely access to appropriate care. The work is delivered in Croydon and sits within the wider scope of NHS-commissioned acute hospital and community services. The relevant service categories are hospital and related services and general-practitioner services. The arrangement involves the Croydon GP Collaborative and Croydon Health Services NHS Trust, indicating a requirement that can involve both primary-care and hospital-service capabilities, with service integration across local clinical pathways.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a Provider Selection Regime direct award under an existing framework, using a procedure without prior publication of a competition. The Croydon GP Collaborative was awarded £126,522, with its contract signed on 1 July 2026. Croydon Health Services NHS Trust was also awarded a contract valued at £1,543,757,860, signed on 1 April 2025. That contract runs from 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2027, for 1,080 days. A formal modification effective 1 April 2025 increased its lifetime value by £446,968,860, from £1,096,789,000 to £1,543,757,860, without changing the term or nature of the services. Evaluation was based entirely on quality and continuity of care, service integration, and mobilisation within required timescales.

This procurement demonstrates substantial local NHS demand for integrated acute, community and specialist general-practice provision in Croydon. A credible future supplier would need to deliver secure GP services, manage clinician referrals, follow agreed referral pathways and provide timely access to appropriate care. It would also need to integrate effectively with acute hospital and community services and demonstrate continuity of care. The evaluation emphasis shows that service quality, operational integration and the ability to mobilise within required timescales are central to competing. Organisations operating at different scales may be relevant: the awarded providers include an SME GP collaborative and a large NHS trust. Experience coordinating primary and secondary care services would strengthen a competing provider’s position.
