"description": "This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award under the PSR. Decision maker: The award decision-makers were members of the following forums: * Commissioning, Contracting and Commercial Committee * Executive Team (NHS Surrey Heartlands ICB). No conflicts of interest were declared. The service evaluation was reviewed against the 5 key criteria and weighted as follows: Quality and Innovation 30% - Quality is foundational in providing healthcare services and the whole model of integrated neighbourhood teams, in a community environment and for a vulnerable cohort of people, demonstrates innovation in the delivery of joined healthcare. Strong quality metrics, safety initiatives, clinical governance, and continual assessment and improvement ensures high quality standards and patient care, alongside a commitment to agile change and innovation as required. Quality is highly valued for this service alongside innovation to the degree that other Key Criteria are reduced in significance, particularly as poor care and an inability to adapt leads to poor outcomes. Improving access, reducing health inequalities, and facilitating choice 25% - Ensuring services reach all patient populations and are accessible by them, especially vulnerable groups, is critical to NHS principles and the services under delivery. Addressing inequalities, providing wrap around care and supporting people holistically is the essence of this service and the model in which it operates, preventing gaps in the delivery of care and missed opportunities for preventative initiatives across diverse communities. Choice can be expressed and accommodated by the nature of the care coordination approach offered. Integration, Collaboration & Service Sustainability 20% - Effective collaboration enhances service efficiency, ensures seamless patient care interactions and prevents duplication of efforts. The multi-agency coordination and workforce integration offered is a key tenet of the service, strengthening the overall healthcare system in East Surrey. Value 15% - Financial sustainability is essential but should not compromise quality or access. Efficient use of workforce and other resources under the model applied to this service ensures long-term service viability while maintaining high standards. The model eliminates duplicate tests, multiple points of access and repetition, provides for upskilling and varied deployment opportunities for staff and reduces churn and the need for recruitment and training expenditure. Social Value 10% - FCHC is an employee-owned social enterprise so extremely well placed to evidence commitment to and delivery of social value attributes in their operations. Social and environmental commitments form part of the organisation's published Strategic Approach. Workforce well-being, environmental sustainability, and community engagement contribute a long-term impact throughout the contract term but are secondary to direct patient care priorities. While important, social value initiatives depend on foundational aspects like quality and accessibility. The existing provider was assessed against the key criteria which were weighted according to importance in terms of service delivery and scored satisfactorily against the assessed criteria.",
