The procurement assessment and decision were undertaken by the Contract Lead, Claudio Fassio and Sutton Primary and Community Care Development and Delivery Project Manager, Vasudha Rai. Provider assistance was also sought for relevant documentation. The Finance and Planning Committee approved the decision. There were no conflicts of interest identified amongst the decision makers.
The criteria used to award the contract were mapped to five key areas, each carrying an equal weight of 20%. This balanced approach ensured that every critical aspect of the service was considered thoroughly. The criteria were:
1. Quality and Innovation (20%): Emphasising the importance of delivering high-quality care and the potential for new and significant improvements through proven innovations in care delivery.
2. Value Focusing on balancing costs with overall benefits and financial implications, ensuring the service was cost-effective without compromising quality.
3. Integration, Collaboration, and Services Sustainability (20%): Ensuring services were consistent with local and national NHS plans, provided in an integrated and collaborative manner, and aimed to improve health outcomes and service continuity.
4. Improving Access, Reducing Health Inequalities, and Facilitating Choice (20%): Highlighting the importance of making services accessible to all eligible patients, addressing health inequalities, and ensuring patient choice.
5. Social Value (20%): Considering the economic, social, and environmental well-being of the area, including moving towards net zero and delivering social value in procurement.
By giving each criterion a 20% weight, the relevant authority ensured a thorough and balanced evaluation, promoting a well-rounded service provision.
The existing provider demonstrated capability in meeting all five key criteria. All scored and pass/fail criteria were met by the provider whom the relevant authority intends to award the contract. The provider has satisfied the requirements of the original contract. Furthermore, the proposed contracting arrangements are not undergoing significant changes.
