Summary of the contracting process

Royal Borough of Greenwich procured GUM Level 3 services, classified as community health services, for delivery in London. The requirement concerns specialist genitourinary medicine provision at Level 3 and is part of the borough’s health-service commissioning activity. Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust is the selected provider and is a large NHS organisation. The opportunity is therefore relevant to NHS trusts, community health providers and other organisations able to deliver specialist sexual health services at the required Level 3 standard. The contract was commissioned by the Royal Borough of Greenwich, with the service location identified within London. The procurement was treated as a light-touch health-services requirement under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust. It used PSR Direct Award Process C, a direct award below the applicable threshold without competition. The authority stated that the existing provider was satisfying the original contract and was likely to meet the proposed contract to a sufficient standard. The provider was selected against weighted key criteria, with the combined scores confirming its ability to continue delivering the contract. The award date was 17 July 2026, and the contract was signed on 3 August 2026. The awarded value is £350,153.50 excluding VAT, or £420,184.20 including VAT. The award period runs from 17 July to 30 September 2026; the stated service period is six months ending 30 September 2026.

This award demonstrates demand from the Royal Borough of Greenwich for a specialist provider able to deliver GUM Level 3 community health services and maintain continuity of an existing service. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need suitable clinical capability, qualified staff and the operational capacity to provide specialist genitourinary medicine at this level. Experience delivering NHS or local-authority commissioned sexual health services would be relevant, particularly where the provider can evidence safe, reliable performance against weighted quality and service criteria. Organisations with established local health-service infrastructure, effective clinical governance and the ability to work within the Provider Selection Regime’s health-services requirements would be well placed. The procurement was marked as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, so these organisations may also be relevant where they can meet the service standard.
