amended), ensuring a fair, open and transparent process in accordance with NHS (Procurement, Patient Choice and Competition) (No. 2) Regulations 2013.
Under the Public Services (Social Value) Act 2012 the Contracting Authority must consider:

improvement.
Accordingly, the subject matter of the contract was scoped to take into account the priorities of the Contracting Authority relating to economic, social and environmental wellbeing.
This procurement was conducted via the NECS e-tendering system (In-tend). As such no hard copy documents were issued to bidders and all communications between bidders and NECS, including tender submissions, were conducted via the In-tend portal.
