## Summary

The NHS City and Hackney Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) has completed a procurement process for the "PRJ-1002 City And Hackney CCG Psychological Therapies Alliance." This contract, falling under the health and social work services category, is based in the London Borough of Hackney and City of London. The procurement method was limited, specifically an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, with key dates indicating that the related contract was signed on 4th January 2021 and is valued at £37,775.25. Due to a merger of the City and Hackney CCG with six other CCGs, a six-month contract extension has been issued to ensure continuity during the transition to the North East London CCG, effective from 1st April 2021.

This procurement process presents significant opportunities for businesses within the healthcare sector, particularly those focused on psychological therapies and integrated health services. Companies with expertise in mental health services, partnership development, and community health initiatives would be well-suited to compete. The emphasis on a patient-centred approach and the need for seamless integration with existing health and social care frameworks makes this an ideal environment for SMEs and organisations that can demonstrate a successful track record in collaborating with NHS entities and local voluntary sectors.

## Notice

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.
