Procurement Information
This contract has necessitated the the use of the negotiated procedure without prior publication of a call for competition due to the urgency of requiring the provision at extremely short notice. The provision supplied by the Provider has been guaranteed for immediate commencement, that would otherwise would not have been able to be achieved through regular procurement. The delay caused by procuring a service of this magnitude would have been considerable, and would not have met the requirement of an immediate start due to the nature of the service. A full procurement would have taken at least three months, following governance approval, and again further delay due to the mobilisation of such a contract by the Provider. With the existing pressures in the homecare market due to lack of workforce and rising costs, this was the only option available to meet the demand of increasing and forecasted winter pressures now.

If an appeal regarding the award of Contract has not been successfully resolved the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (Chapter 6) provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rules, to take action in the High Court (England, Wales and Northern Ireland). Any such action must be brought promptly. Where a Contract has not been entered into the Court may order the setting aside of the award decision or order the Authority to amend any document and may award damages. If the Contract has been entered into the Court may order the ineffectiveness of a Contract where serious breach have occurred in addition to any fine, the Court may instead provide for alternative penalties, either contract shortening, fines or both.",
