South West London Procurement Partnership (SWLPP) brings together the procurement teams of its member organisations into a single, collaborative service, established in line with NHS England best practice guidance.
Operational since 1 April 2021, SWLPP was established following approval by the Board of each member Trust after a formal business case review. The service is hosted by St George’s University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (SGUH), with colleagues based across our member Trusts, at the Wandle Annex at SGUH, and working across the South West London region.
SWLPP is responsible for procurement, excluding Pharmacy, and supply chain activities across its member organisations. The service is accountable to the regional executive lead and governed through its Steering Board, which includes the Chief Finance Officer from each member Trust.
