Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Newham commissioned a Hospital Discharge and Community Support Programme Lead service to manage a high-profile transformation programme spanning the council, NHS North East London Integrated Care Board, Barts Health NHS Trust, East London NHS Foundation Trust and wider system partners. The work concerns hospital and related services, focused on improving hospital discharge and community support across these organisations. Delivery is in Newham, London. The programme lead role involves coordinating change across organisational boundaries rather than providing a standalone clinical service.

The procurement is complete and the contract was signed on 7 October 2026. Newham used a below-threshold limited competition. JWC&HG LTD was selected for the single lot. The contract is active from 8 October 2026 to 31 August 2027, with a potential one-year extension, up to 31 August 2028. The contract value is £99,600 including gross value as stated. The published outcome identifies the service category and programme scope but does not set out evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility requirements.

This award shows Newham’s demand for programme leadership across health and local government partners to transform hospital discharge and community support. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need strong programme and change-management capability, with the capacity to coordinate senior stakeholders across a council, an integrated care board, NHS trusts and wider system partners. Experience of hospital discharge pathways and community support would be directly relevant, alongside the ability to manage a high-profile, cross-organisational programme. The selected supplier is an SME, demonstrating that this requirement was delivered by a smaller business; the scope is a specialist leadership service rather than a large-scale supply or works contract.
