    "description": "This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intention to award notice. The awarding of this contract is subject to 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 to this award. The publication of this notice marks the start of the standstill period. Representations by providers must be made to the relevant authority by Friday the 24th of January 2025. This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award under the PSR.<br/><br/>Written representations should be sent to the following address:<br/>athanasios.boumpouris@liverpoolft.nhs.uk <br/><br/>This award has been approved by the Board of Directors.<br/><br/>A declaration of interest exercise was undertaken and no conflicts of interest were identified.<br/><br/>The relative importance of the key criteria used to make the decision to award the Outpatient Pharmacy Services was due to the financial impact of the service moving from one provider to another in terms of initial mobilisation and ongoing costs, the quality impact of the service and the time for mobilisation as this would impact on patients.<br/>The Trust chose the criteria as Halo Healthcare Services (Lloyds) were handing back the contract with only 4 months' notice so there was an urgent requirement to find an alternative. Due to the financial position of the Trust, the value of the new contract was imperative and as the dispensing service is a patient focussed service, the quality impact of the service moving and the new contract was important. The rationale for choosing the new provider is based upon this criteria:<br/>a) Due to the nature of a Wholly Owned Subsidiary Clatterbridge Pharmacy Limited (CPL), Clatterbridge Road, Bebington, Wirral, CH63 4JY, have offered the new contract with improved Value for Money from the previous contract due to open book accounting and a reduction in the dispensing fee.<br/>b) Due to the urgency of the requirement the Trust were assured that CPL could mobilise in time for Lloyds handing back the contract, including taking over leases and TUPE implications.<br/>c) As quality of service is a key criterion of the contract the Trust were assured that there would be no dip in service during mobilisation and there are service improvements planned post contract mobilisation.<br/>d) The Trust were assured that patient care is at the forefront of the service provision proposed by CPL.",
