## Summary

Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust recently updated the procurement process for selecting a Primary Care Partner (GP Services) for the Urgent Treatment Centre at University Hospital Lewisham. Initially initiated under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, this process was subject to multiple changes and evaluations before being eventually abandoned due to flaws identified in the evaluation process and a revised decision to utilise Trust-employed GPs. The last significant update occurred on 6 March 2026 when the procurement was officially abandoned with no contract awarded, halting any future procurement processes for this service. Earlier announcements had suggested a competitive procurement process without prior publication and a potential contract term from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2030, extendable by 60 months.

For businesses seeking growth opportunities in the medical services industry, specifically those involved in GP services, this tender originally represented a substantial contract opportunity with an estimated lifetime value of around £13.69 million. The procurement was open to entities capable of providing innovative, cost-effective, and sustainable urgent care services. As the tendering process is now cancelled, these companies might seek future opportunities with similar organisations or keep an eye on public procurement boards for revised or new tenders in the healthcare services sector. This reflects an area of interest for firms ready to offer high-quality and integrated healthcare solutions in a collaborative partnership with public health institutions.

## Notice

This notice is in relation to the competitive procurement for the Primary Care Partner (GP Services) for the Urgent Treatment Centre at University Hospital Lewisham run by Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust.

Further to its previous decision to abandon the procurement dated 24 October 2025, the Trust received notification of potential legal challenge in respect of that decision. The Trust subsequently cancelled the earlier abandonment decision and returned to an earlier stage in the procurement process.

On 6 March 2026, the Trust took a further decision to abandon the procurement. This decision was taken due to identified flaws in the evaluation process which prevented a fair evaluation of providers, and the Trust's decision to adopt a revised service delivery model based on Trust-employed GPs.

The Provider Selection Regime (PSR) Competitive Process selected for this procurement has been abandoned and a contract has not been awarded. The Trust does not intend to carry out a new procurement process for these services.

This process has been abandoned under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply.
