Summary of the contracting process

London Borough of Newham is buying digital HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) services 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 Barking and Dagenham, Redbridge, Havering, Newham, Tower Hamlets and Waltham Forest in North East London. This is a health service delivered digitally, focused on prevention and improved access for communities underserved by clinic-based provision.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Preventx Ltd. The buyer used a Provider Selection Regime direct award, process C, without a prior competition. The stated award date is 1 November 2026; the contract is intended to run from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2027. The contract value is £440,000, described as an estimate based on activity, and the service is intended to be accessible across the six North East London boroughs. Newham’s stated share is £101,000. The procurement was organised as one lot, but that lot is marked cancelled in the data; the active award and contract information names Preventx Ltd as the selected supplier. The award was evaluated on price.

For suppliers preparing for a comparable requirement from Newham, the award demonstrates demand for a digital PrEP service aimed at people facing barriers to conventional sexual health clinics, delivered across multiple boroughs. A credible competitor would need to provide a digital route into HIV prevention services and show how it can reach groups with poorer sexual health outcomes while supporting service users across a geographically dispersed population. The incumbent was selected through the Provider Selection Regime’s direct award C route, rather than a competitive tender, so the procurement does not establish that a future opportunity would use an open competition. The single-lot structure indicates that the requirement was packaged as one service across the boroughs, rather than split into separate local contracts.
