Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

London Borough of Newham is buying digital HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) health services designed to improve access to HIV prevention for groups who experience poorer sexual health outcomes and barriers to traditional clinic-based care. The service is intended for residents across the North East London boroughs of Barking and Dagenham, Redbridge, Havering, Newham, Tower Hamlets and Waltham Forest. Newham is the buyer, and the service covers the boroughs collectively, with Newham’s portion identified separately in the procurement. This is a digital sexual health service rather than general health technology or broad clinical provision.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Preventx Ltd was selected through a direct award under the Provider Selection Regime’s Direct Award-C route, without a prior call for competition. The stated evaluation basis was price. One bid was recorded. The contract value is £440,000, described as an estimate based on activity, over two years; Newham’s portion is £101,000. The contract was signed on 19 October 2026, with a stated start date of 1 November 2026. The procurement is presented as a single service requirement across the named boroughs; the associated lot is marked cancelled, while the award and contract are recorded as active.

For suppliers preparing for comparable future demand from Newham, this award indicates a requirement for a digital PrEP service focused on widening HIV prevention access for underserved groups across multiple North East London boroughs. A credible competitor would need to show it can deliver digital sexual health provision at a borough-wide scale and address barriers faced by people who do not readily access traditional clinics. The selected provider was Preventx Ltd, and the recorded award route was a Direct Award-C under the Provider Selection Regime, with price identified as the evaluation basis. The buyer’s requirement is specifically digital PrEP and HIV prevention; experience in unrelated digital health or general health services alone would not demonstrate fit.
