Summary of the contracting process

NHS West and North London Integrated Care Board commissioned hospital and related healthcare services from Circle Health Group Limited. The requirement supports extended patient choice for patients and GPs across West and North London, alongside the delivery of elective outpatient and diagnostic services. This is a clinical healthcare services opportunity rather than a goods supply or construction project. Delivery is associated with the West and North London area, with the supplier based in London. The buying organisation is a public-sector NHS integrated care board responsible for commissioning these services. Businesses relevant to this requirement are likely to provide hospital-based elective care, outpatient pathways and diagnostic capacity for NHS patients referred through patient-choice arrangements.

The procurement has been awarded under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, using a Direct Award Process B without prior publication of a competition. The award followed the Patient Choice route and was evaluated on price. Circle Health Group Limited was selected as the supplier for the single requirement, with an awarded lifetime value of £60,627,570. The contract period runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2029, and the contract was signed on 1 April 2026. One bid was recorded, with both the lowest and highest valid bid valued at £60,627,570. NHS West and North London Integrated Care Board is the buyer. The award is recorded as active and the contract as active.

This award indicates sustained NHS demand for providers able to deliver elective outpatient care and diagnostic services at substantial scale across West and North London. Strong competitors for a future requirement would need established hospital or clinical-service infrastructure, the capacity to accept and treat NHS patients referred through patient-choice arrangements, and the operational ability to support both outpatient pathways and diagnostics. The successful supplier was a large healthcare organisation, suggesting that dependable delivery capacity and an established service platform are important signals of credibility. Businesses with relevant hospital services, diagnostic facilities, NHS-facing patient administration and referral-handling capability would be best placed to study this buyer’s requirements and prepare for comparable future opportunities.
