## Summary

The NHS City and Hackney Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) is currently conducting a procurement process for the "PRJ-998 City And Hackney CCG Psychological Therapies Alliance," aimed at providing health and social work services, specifically mental health support, within the London Borough of Hackney and the City of London. The contract is valued at £262,126.25 and has been awarded following a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition. This project is part of a broader initiative where the CCG is merging with six other CCGs on 1 April 2021, necessitating a six-month contract extension to ensure continuity during this transitional period, which will last until September 2021.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in health and social services, particularly those with a focus on psychological therapies and mental health support. Companies with experience in integrated service provision that can effectively collaborate with various health and social care stakeholders will be well-positioned to compete. The emphasis on partnership models suggests that organisations capable of delivering integrated, patient-centric care and demonstrating strong local connections will likely thrive in future competitive tendering processes post-merger.

## Notice

This is an alliance contract which was set between volunteer sector and NHS Trusts and is intended to increase access to an integrated patient-centred service for the improvement of the wellbeing of the City and Hackney residents. City and Hackney CCG is undergoing a merger with 6 other CCGs on 1-Apr-2021 and is intending to issue a short extension (6 months) to all contracts expiring on 31-Mar-2021 to provide continuity during the merger. This is under regulation 72(b)(i) and 72(b)(ii) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 because a change of contractor cannot be made for technical reasons and would cause significant inconvenience for the CCG.

### Procurement Information

City & Hackney CCG is being merged with 6 other CCGs to form North East London CCG (NEL CCG) on 1-April-2021. To ensure smooth transition to NEL CCG the CCG is extending all contracts for 6 months where continuity of provider is deemed necessary. The CCG is publishing this notice to signal its intention to directly award a contract, on the grounds that continuing to use the original contractors is necessary during the merger for technical reasons and that changing contractor at this time would cause significant inconvenience to the CCG (PCR 2015, Reg 72(b)(i) and (b)(ii). While consideration has been given to the Coronavirus pandemic response 32(2)(c) is not being cited as the primary reason for the extension. The CCG believes that this supplier is already integrated with other services in East London, and has strong links with local health, social care, community and voluntary organisations. This enables it to deliver services in an integrated way and provide holistic care that meets the needs of local patients. The intended contract extension is for 6 months, to September 2021, and by that time NEL CCG will have been able to complete the merger process, understand where it has multiple contracts for the same services, and make decisions on competitive tendering options for future consolidated contracts as a new organisation.
