This falls within the health and social work services category and will be applicable primarily in London, United Kingdom. The procurement process is in the tender stage, using an open procedure which allows all interested parties to submit bids by 20th April 2026. The framework is structured into five distinct lots, which organisations can bid for, covering various areas such as Prevention or Support for Adults, Family Support, Connection to Care, Specialist Support Services, and Outreach and Communication regarding BBVs and STIs. The contract period will commence on 1st June 2026 and run through to 9th March 2029. The overall financial scope amounts to £225,000,000, offering substantial opportunities for service providers to contribute to public health efforts. This extensive framework presents a significant opportunity for businesses, especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), to expand their reach and deliver crucial health services. The framework's structure, with multiple lots and the option for organisations to apply for more than one, allows versatility and encourages wide participation. Businesses with expertise in prevention, healthcare support, and outreach can leverage this tender to establish or grow their presence in London's public health sector. The open procedure fosters competitiveness and inclusivity, creating pathways for both new firms and established entities looking to diversify or enhance their service offerings. Given the evolving dynamics and partnerships within London's Integrated Care Systems, this tender underscores a strategic avenue for impactful collaborations and long-term growth. ## Notice The Framework duration is 4 years plus 4 years (4+4) subject to sustainability, suitability and value for money. Framework start date is 10th March 2025. The Authority intends to open the Framework in whole or in part i.e. certain lot(s) twice per annum for Tenders from new organisations or to allow existing organisations to apply for additional Lot(s) (once launched) throughout its lifetime. The Authority reserves the right to amend the frequency of this timeline. Please note that if you have previously submitted a bid and were successful, you are not required to submit a bid again in this round. The Authority is inviting Tenders from suitably experienced and qualified organisations to join the Framework for Prevention and Support Services related to HIV, STIs and other BBVs. The Framework has been split into five (5) lots as follows: Lot 1: Prevention and / or Support (Adults): to cover any area of work designed to help prevent residents from contracting HIV and/or other blood-borne viruses (BBVs). Lot 2: Support for Families (as per existing contracts). Lot 3: Connection to Care (support from screening & diagnosis through to accessing treatment). Lot 4: Specialist Support Services, e.g. support for PLWHIV based in Specialist HIV Treatment Services. Lot 5: Outreach and / or Communications for Blood-Borne Viruses (BBV) and / or STIs. The Procurement is being run under the open procedure, which is a procedure, under which the framework is advertised and all interested organisations/consortium can submit a Tender. There will be no form of exclusivity or volume guarantee granted by the Authority or Partner Organisations under the Framework. Organisations may apply for award to more than one lot. There are no restrictions to the number of organisations who can be awarded on to the Framework for any lot, so long as they meet the minimum criteria. The Procurement is being procured by the Authority for the benefit of the Authority and the Partner Organisations. The host Borough is London Borough of Newham (LBN). Organisations should note that there is no guarantee that all Partner Organisations will participate in the Framework Agreement at the commencement date (or at all). It is ultimately at the discretion of each individual Partner Organisation as to whether they will utilize the Framework Agreement. Partner Organisations means all London Local Authorities and Health Partners. 'Health Partners' in this context refers to all organisations comprising Integrated Care Partnerships (ICPs), Integrated Care Boards (ICBs), Integrated Care Systems (ICSs) and NHS Trusts (or future equivalent bodies in the event of re-structures). ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e1e6a353-ae6d-40fc-99d1-929a4c4735aa | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 9 Mar 2026 | | Submission deadline | 20 Apr 2026 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 May 2026 - 9 Mar 2029 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £225,000,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LONDON BOROUGH OF NEWHAM | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | East London | | Postcode | E16 2QU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI41 Hackney and Newham | | Local authority | Newham | | Electoral ward | Royal Albert | | Westminster constituency | West Ham and Beckton | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 9 Mar 2026 at 16:40 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e1e6a353-ae6d-40fc-99d1-929a4c4735aa ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e1e6a353-ae6d-40fc-99d1-929a4c4735aa 9th March 2026 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.delta-esourcing.com/delta/respondToList.html?noticeId=1019345502 Please follow this link to view the notice. ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
