## Summary

The LEWISHAM AND GREENWICH NHS TRUST has awarded a contract for GP Services at the Urgent Care Hub in University Lewisham Hospital. The procurement involved Light Touch Regime services for clinical services, aimed at supporting Urgent and Emergency care operations. The procurement method used was a negotiated process without public notice, with a specific rationale based on extreme urgency. The contracting authority's deadline for expressions of interest was set for midnight on 3rd August 2023.

This procurement, focusing on medical practice services, provides an opportunity for businesses that can offer expertise in providing clinical services for an Urgent Care Hub. SMEs with experience in the healthcare sector may find this tender particularly suitable due to the urgent nature of the contract and the need for specialised medical services. The opportunity allows for potential growth in the healthcare industry, catering to the specific needs identified by the Trust within this critical healthcare environment.

## Notice
