Summary of the contracting process

South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust procured an expansion of the Croydon Step Down Service, based at 59 Addiscombe Court, Croydon. The requirement was for two additional bed spaces within Southcroft Lodge, providing rehabilitation and step-down support. This is a healthcare service rather than a goods supply or construction project. The Trust is the buying organisation, and delivery is at the Croydon service location. The selected provider, Southcroft Healthcare Lodge Ltd, is based in London. The requirement is relevant to organisations operating residential healthcare, rehabilitation, supported accommodation or step-down services, particularly those able to provide additional beds and care provision for NHS patients in a London setting.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct award for a contract variation, rather than a competitive tender. Southcroft Healthcare Lodge Ltd was selected as the supplier for the single requirement. The award value is £81,046 excluding VAT, or £97,255.68 including VAT. The contract period runs from 14 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. A signature was scheduled for 14 August 2026. The evaluation basis was the justification for adding two beds to the existing Croydon Step Down Service, under a contract variation. The service is classified as rehabilitation services and the procurement was above the relevant threshold. The awarded requirement concerns two additional bed spaces.

This award indicates demand from South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust for residential step-down and rehabilitation capacity in Croydon. A credible future competitor would need to operate suitable accommodation, provide additional bed spaces and deliver rehabilitation-focused support within an NHS mental health pathway. It would also need to understand the practical requirements of a Croydon-based service, including safe patient accommodation and continuity with existing step-down provision. Southcroft Healthcare Lodge Ltd’s selection shows that a provider already able to deliver this type of accommodation and service was considered suitable for the variation. Organisations with experience in NHS-funded residential care, rehabilitation services and supported discharge or step-down pathways would be well placed to assess similar requirements from this buyer.
