Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

North London Foundation Trust is procuring general practitioner services for adult inpatients in North London Forensic Service’s 210-bed low- and medium-secure mental health facilities at Chase Farm Hospital and Avesbury House. The service covers regular GP clinics, annual physical health checks, assessment of ad hoc referrals, management of long-term conditions, preventative healthcare, health promotion and onward referral to secondary care. Delivery is collaborative, with the Trust’s multidisciplinary teams. The requirement is healthcare services delivered to patients within secure mental health settings, rather than general community GP provision. The named delivery locality is Enfield, within North London. It would suit a GP provider able to work safely and effectively with adult forensic mental health inpatients and coordinate physical healthcare with specialist clinical teams.

The procurement used the Provider Selection Regime and a limited award procedure without prior publication of a competition. The stated basis was the existing provider’s satisfactory performance and expected ability to meet the proposed contract to a sufficient standard; quality carried 100% of the evaluation and price 0%. The process is recorded as complete, with an intention to award published on 20 August 2026 and representations due by 3 September 2026. The selected provider is Dr Niel Amin. The contract is recorded as active, valued at £148,500, and signed on 20 August 2026. Its initial term is two years, with an option to extend by one further year. The procurement record also marks its single lot as cancelled, while recording the award and contract as active.

This procurement shows demand for a small-scale, specialist GP service embedded in secure mental health facilities. A credible future competitor would need to provide regular inpatient clinics, comprehensive annual physical health checks, responsive assessment of ad hoc referrals and effective management of long-term conditions. Experience of preventative healthcare, health promotion and onward referral to secondary care would be directly relevant. Providers would also need to work collaboratively with multidisciplinary mental health teams and understand the clinical, operational and safeguarding requirements of low- and medium-secure environments. The award approach placed decisive weight on the incumbent’s performance and anticipated service quality rather than price, so evidence of reliable delivery, continuity, patient-centred care and strong partnership working with the Trust would be important when demonstrating suitability for this requirement.
