PS38,000,000 anna ### Procurement Information Commissioners are confident that an award of a new contract to a single provider without advertisement is justified and are satisfied that the overall contract is capable of being provided only by that provider. The Commissioner's guiding principles being: * the requirement to commission services from those providers that are most capable of securing the needs of health care service users and improving the quality and efficiency of services, and that provide the best value for money in doing so. * the requirement to consider appropriate means of improving NHS health care services. The Commissioner has carried out a detailed review of the provision of particular services in its local area in order to understand how those services can be improved and, as part of that review, identified the most capable provider or providers of those services. The review has included an assessment to determine past and current performance, capability and capacity for the provider to deliver the future requirements of the contract. In the context of the review undertaken and the recommendations derived from a collaborative approach to what needs to change, the Commissioner has been able to identify with reasonable certainty that it is the incumbent provider that is capable of providing the contract (or that is capable of developing the capacity/infrastructure to do so) and to determine the incumbent provider is most capable of securing the needs of health care service users and of improving services, and represent best value for money for the contract period required from 1st April 2024. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/032184-2023 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Limited | | Procurement method details | Negotiated without publication of a contract notice | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 31 Oct 2023 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 31 Oct 2023 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £266,000,000 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS WEST YORKSHIRE ICB, KIRKLEES HEALTH AND CARE PARTNERSHIP | | Locality | HUDDERSFIELD | | Post town | Huddersfield | | Postcode | HD1 2LR | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE4 West Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE44 Calderdale and Kirklees | | Local authority | Kirklees | | Electoral ward | Newsome | | Westminster constituency | Huddersfield | | Delivery location | TLE44 Calderdale and Kirklees | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | LOCALA COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85323000 - Community health services ## Release History - 31 Oct 2023 at 15:34 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/032184-2023 ## Notice URLs - https://courttribunalfinder.service.gov.uk/courts/royal-courts-of-justice - https://www.locala.org.uk/ - https://www.westyorkshire.icb.nhs.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
