    "description": "This contract has been awarded under the urgent circumstances provision of the Provider Selection Regime (PSR). 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. This an incumbent provider within the NWL footprint, having taken part in previous campaigns. A delay in national confirmation of funding created an unrealistic timeframe, in which a full procurement process would have left gaps in the provision of vaccines in the upcoming Spring campaign for large numbers of eligible individuals and/or groups. Discussion has taken place with all London ICB Programme Leads and it has been agreed that due to the serious time constraints and ensuring readiness for Spring, a direct award of 12 months to incumbent providers is essential. In addition, there is significant concern on the extent of reduction in Access and Inequalities funding, and with no surge budget this year, that providers will not come forward to support any shorter contract period as it is not financially viable for them. It is recommended that regional approval is provided to issue direct award contracts to existing incumbent providers to enable the commissioning of outreach services for 2025/26. Award decision makers: Following a national CEG decision, the London Regional Executive team approved the request for an Outreach Service, Direct Award (12 months) to incumbent providers. - Regional Director of Finance, NHSE London - Regional Director of Commissioning, NHSE London - Director of Commissioning Finance, NHSE London Approval was also given by: - Operational Director - Covid-19 and Influenza Vaccination Programmes, NHSE London - Assistant Director of Delivery, NHSE London - Vaccine Programme Lead, NHSE London There were no conflicts of interest identified in the decision making process.",
