For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award. The standstill period begins on the day after the publication of this notice. Representations by providers must be made to decision makers by 28 October 2024 to the following email address: [email protected] This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award under the PSR. The decision makers for this process were NHS Coventry & Warwickshire Integrated Care Board Procurement Panel and Finance and Performance Committee. There were no conflicts of interests declared in reaching the decision to award. The current incumbent, Spirit Healthcare Ltd, was considered against the 5 key criteria. These criteria are not weighted differently as they are equally important for this service. They are currently meeting all contractual and legislative requirements for primary care GP medical services and enhanced services for the cohort population. The current contract holder is delivering experienced clinical care to a good standard, has scored highly on the most recent GP patient satisfaction national survey and is rated as CQC good. Continuity of care and stake holder engagement is especially important for this patient population demography. Part of the decision making considerations also included how generally GP practices are experiencing significant pressure with many practices facing challenges due to increases in demand, partner and clinical workforce retention and recruitment, and inflation. Basic selection criteria was assessed through due diligence checks conducted by the commissioner in line with regulations 19 and 20, following schedule 16. The assessment against each criterion was undertaken based on the current service delivery model and performance. The supplier meets all the requirements specified to the satisfaction of the Commissioner, and it is expected that they will satisfy the requirements of the new contract going forwards.
