    "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 Procurement Act Regulations 2023 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 decision makers by 23.59 p.m. on 24 June 2025. This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award under the PSR. Please forward written representations to: hub.psrrepresentation@nhs.net The procurement assessment and decision were undertaken by the NHS South West London (SWL) Integrated Care Board (ICB) Contracting and Procurement Group on 12 March 2025. There were no conflicts of interests identified. The criteria used to award the contract were mapped to five key areas and the proposed weightings reflect the priorities outlined in the government's 2025 mandate to NHS England, which focuses on the need for high-quality, efficient, and equitable healthcare services. 1) Quality and Innovation (30%) is given the highest weighting, as the mandate emphasises delivering high quality care and the promotion and adoption of proven innovations in care delivery. 2. Value (20%) is weighted significantly to align with its focus on financial discipline, productivity improvements, and ensuring every pound is spent effectively and knowingly. 3) Integration, Collaboration, and Service Sustainability (20%) supports the vision of shifting care from hospitals to communities, fostering collaboration across systems, and working to ensure long-term sustainability. 4) Improving Access, Reducing Health Inequalities, and Facilitating Choice (20%) reflects a commitment to tackling health disparities and improving access to care, and also to empowering patients with greater choice. 5) Social Value (10%) is weighted to reflect the NHS's role in supporting local employment, environmental sustainability, and community well-being, 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.",
