This contract has been awarded 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 to this award. The contract award was urgent due to the current provider serving notice and the ICB being unable to secure a new provider, despite going out to the market twice via a competitive route. Therefore the ICB attempted to award a contract via a suitable PSR route (competitive route) without success and therefore urgently needed to secure a new provider to be able to mobilise a new contract from October 2024. The reason for the urgency is not attributable to the ICB, and any further delay would certainly pose a risk to patients as it would create a gap in the service. A 2 year contract is required to ensure stability of the service. Given the fragility of the service and that the ICB have been out to the market twice and been unsuccessful in securing a provider, the ICB needed to secure more stable arrangements going forward. The Director of Operational Finance, in a deputising role to the ICB's CFO approved this urgent award on the 11/06/24. No conflicts were declared.",
