Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Hertfordshire Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust buys general practitioner services for people receiving support at Elizabeth Court. The requirement is for doctors to visit the service and address residents’ physical health concerns, including GP services for patients on the special allocation scheme. The work is delivered at Elizabeth Court in Hertfordshire. This is a local, in-person primary care service, rather than a general hospital or community-wide provision. The awarded provider, Stanmore Medical Group, is based in Stevenage. Suppliers considering similar work should note that the service involves arranging GP visits at a specific supported living location and responding to the physical health needs of the people placed there.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Stanmore Medical Group. The contract was signed on 1 April 2026. The reported valid bid value was £56,463; the bid statistics show one bid, with the lowest and highest valid bid values equal. Hertfordshire Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust used a direct award without a prior competition, under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The stated award basis was price. The procurement was organised as a single lot for GP special allocation services. The lot is recorded as cancelled, while the award and contract are recorded as active. No contract duration or end date is stated, so the contract period cannot be reported.

For providers of primary care, the award demonstrates demand from Hertfordshire Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust for GP visits to a specific supported service, addressing service users’ physical health concerns. A credible competitor when this requirement next comes to market would need to organise reliable, in-person doctor visits and deliver appropriate general practice care to people placed at Elizabeth Court, including those requiring special allocation services. The selected supplier is a local medical group, and the process recorded one bid, with price as the evaluation basis. This indicates that local delivery capability and a competitive price were relevant to the result. Medical practices able to provide this focused service in Hertfordshire are the closest fit; wider healthcare capability alone would not address the requirement for scheduled GP visits at the named setting.
