Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham commissioned local stop-smoking services and support for residents in Hammersmith and Fulham. The requirement is a healthcare service covering the delivery of smoking cessation support to local residents, under the broader health services category (CPV 85100000). The council is the buying organisation. The published requirement describes services selected through consultation with resident choice, where an existing provider was matched to the resident’s preference. The intended service is therefore focused on accessible, resident-centred smoking cessation support rather than the supply of goods, construction or general consultancy. The named provider is Turning Point, a large London-based organisation, and the contract concerns delivery within the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham.

The procurement has reached the awarded and contracted stage. Turning Point was selected for the local stop-smoking services and support requirement, and the contract was signed on 1 April 2025. Its value is £180,000. The council used a limited award procedure without prior publication of a competition, under the Provider Selection Regime for healthcare services and specifically direct award process B. The published evaluation basis referred to there being no realistic alternative provider or patient choice, alongside price and quality considerations. One bid was recorded, submitted electronically by a non-EU bidder. The requirement was published as a single lot, although that lot is recorded as cancelled while the associated award and contract are active. The contracting authority is the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham.

This award indicates demand from Hammersmith and Fulham for structured local smoking cessation services delivered directly to residents. A credible future competitor would need the clinical, operational and safeguarding capability to provide accessible stop-smoking support at borough level, with the capacity to manage resident referrals and preferences and to maintain continuity where an existing provider is selected. Experience of delivering community or primary-care-linked health services, working with local authorities and meeting healthcare governance requirements would be relevant. Providers should also be able to demonstrate reliable electronic tender administration and the scale to serve a London borough. The direct-award route and emphasis on patient choice show that service quality, continuity and the absence of a realistic alternative provider can be commercially important, alongside price.
