"description": "This contract has been awarded under the urgent circumstance provision of the Provider Selection Regime (PSR), under Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contract Regulations 2015 and/or Procurement Act 2023 do not apply to this award. The contract is being awarded to ensure the ongoing provision of children's community health and wellbeing services whilst a longer-term solution for this cohort of patients is secured. The reason for the urgency was not foreseeable by and is not attributable to the contracting authority. It follows withdrawal of the currently contracted provider. A contract length greater than 12 months is required due to the nature and value of the service, the need to run a robust full competitive procurement - including updates to the specification and financing to facilitate this, mobilisation and reasonable time for any representations - to appropriately contract it. Other legally compliant procurement options are not available for this requirement under the terms of the Provider Selection Regime. The extension period further takes into account potential disruption during this process due to the national changes to ICBs. The Urgent Award is being made to Devon Partnership NHS Trust (DPT) who have delivered the CAMHS element of the contract, under a sub-contract arrangement, since the original contract commenced. A due diligence process has been undertaken and assurance has been provided in relation to the capacity and capability to the deliver the service. DPT also hold a contract with the ICB for adult Mental Health Services. The decision to award the contract was made by NHS Devon ICB Procurement Oversight Group on 26 November 2025. No conflicts of interest were identified for those involved in the decision-making process.",
