Why no open competition: The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the directive
Published justification: West Essex CCG have been on a journey to establish an Integrated Care Partnership (ICP) across West Essex working with its incumbent providers. This work includes the development of the Out of Hospital Model, to which end of life services are a part of. This means that the continuation of services to be delivered by St Clare Hospice directly relates to the CCGs plans to deliver its ICP. Procurement of the services at this time would likely disrupt the progression of implementation of the Out of Hospital Model.
Furthermore, the hospice market within the West Essex geography is limited and therefore it is concluded that a procurement process would not be successful due to an absence of competition.
