Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Hertfordshire Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust sought general-practitioner support for people receiving care at Astley Court, an assessment and treatment service for people with learning disabilities, and Broadland Clinic, which provides low- and medium-secure care. The requirement also includes out-of-hours emergency on-call cover for both sites. This is a primary care service supporting patients during their stay in specialist NHS settings, alongside urgent GP cover outside normal hours. The named locations are Astley Court and Broadland Clinic in Hertfordshire; no more precise delivery address is identified. The procurement is categorised as GP services.

The process is recorded as awarded, with LPH On Call Group trading as Thorpewood Medical Group selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026. The award value and contract period are not stated. The procurement used a Provider Selection Regime Direct Award C, through a limited procedure without prior publication of a competition. One bid was recorded, and price was the stated evaluation criterion. The requirement was organised as one lot, covering GP support at the two sites and out-of-hours emergency on-call provision. Although the process is reported as awarded and the contract is active, the lot itself is marked cancelled; this creates conflicting status information in the published process data.

For GP practices and primary care providers, this requirement demonstrates demand from Hertfordshire Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust for ongoing general-practice support within specialist learning-disability and secure inpatient services, with emergency out-of-hours cover included. A credible provider would need to deliver routine clinical support to service users during their stay across both settings and organise reliable urgent on-call provision for the same sites. The selected supplier is a medical group, indicating that a provider with GP capability was chosen; the recorded competition involved one bid and price was the stated criterion. Suppliers considering similar work for this Trust should be equipped to cover both inpatient environments and emergency calls, rather than offering routine primary care alone. The selection through Direct Award C is the recorded route for this procurement.
