Summary of the contracting process

King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust procured clinical services for vascular care, focused on outsourced varicose-vein patient pathways. The requirement covered the whole pathway rather than an individual treatment stage, and was classified under cardiology services. Delivery was in London, with the named provider based at The Battersea Clinic in Nine Elms. The procurement formed part of the Trust’s wider health commissioning activity and followed earlier outsourced varicose-vein work delivered with Battersea Hospital during 2024/25. The selected provider was The Battersea Clinic. The service was intended to support treatment of 108 patient pathways, showing a requirement for an organisation able to provide coordinated vascular care at meaningful clinical volume.

The procurement has reached completion and was awarded to The Battersea Clinic. The contract was signed on 8 September 2026. Its recorded value was £484,000, matching both the lowest and highest valid bid; one bid was recorded. The published funding description referred to available funding of £485,000 for 108 patient pathways. The route was a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, using a framework agreement, with price as the stated evaluation criterion. The process was recorded as outside the scope of the relevant directive. It was organised as one lot, although that lot is marked cancelled while the related award is active. King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust was the buyer.

This procurement indicates demand from King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust for a provider capable of delivering an end-to-end outsourced vascular pathway, rather than supplying isolated clinical sessions or separate treatment components. A credible competitor would need established expertise in varicose-vein care, the clinical infrastructure and workforce to treat substantial patient volumes, and the operational capacity to coordinate the full pathway. Previous delivery of comparable activity for the Trust or its wider commissioning arrangements would be commercially relevant, since the selected provider had already worked with Battersea Hospital on outsourced varicose-vein services. Suppliers should also be able to price competitively and demonstrate reliable delivery at the scale of more than one hundred patient pathways.
