What is being bought

Within the Council the Public Health Team are responsible for commissioning Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) services. The vision for the service is an intelligence led prevention driven service that can respond to emerging issues in an efficient and effective way. It is recognised that prevention is crucial to reducing the risk of significant harm posed by some infectious diseases. The service needs to demonstrate a clear commitment to prevention through a clear annual planning process and strong partnership working. With partners, the service should be committed to the aspiration of a reduction in community-onset gram negative bacteraemia counts and rates, reduction in community-attributed C. difficile bacteraemia counts and rates, and zero avoidable cases of community-onset MRSA.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Health and social work services (85000000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
