Representations by providers must be made to decision makers by midnight on 29th January 2025. This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award under the PSR'.

Publisher note: The decision to award this contract in line with the Most Suitable Provider Process was based on evaluation against the basic selection criteria, which were assessed on a "Pass" / "Fail" basis, and the 5 key criteria (see below), which were assessed on an "Assured" / "Not assured" basis. The key criteria were weighted equally. Assessment of the provider was based on the evidence available through their existing contract with NHS England South West, as well as further information that was requested as part of the MSP process. RDUH attained a "pass" on all elements of the basic selection criteria and "assured" on all elements of the key criteria assessment, meeting the requirements of the assessment. Award decisions have been recommended by the NHS England Health & Justice Sexual Assault and Abuse Strategy Commissioner. Award decisions have been made by the NHS England South West System Oversight & Co-ordination Leadership Team, with key decision makers being Managing Director - System Commissioning Development, Director of Commissioning Finance, Director of Collaborative Commissioning. No conflicts of interest were declared. The key criteria for review were as follows: a. Quality and innovation i.

Review of evidence of relevant accreditations or service development initiatives e.g. Bluestar pre-trial guidance iii.
