        "description": "The Contract Authority; NHS West Yorkshire Integrated Care Board intends to award a contract to an existing provider following Direct Award Process C. The authority is publishing this notice in Find a Tender in accordance with the NHS Provider Selection Regime.<br/><br/>Contract Period: 01/10/2026 - 31/08/2028<br/><br/>Contract Value: £2,124,009. Additional information: 1. Eligibility for Direct Award Process C<br/>The Record of Decision Making created at the time of the decision confirms that the service:<br/>•\tis an existing service;<br/>•\tis delivered by an existing provider, Leeds Survivor Led Crisis Service;<br/>•\tis replacing a contract that is due to expire; and<br/>•\tis therefore eligible in principle for Direct Award Process C.<br/>The Record also identifies the named decision maker, senior approving bodies, contract value and term, and confirms that no conflicts of interest were declared. This document evidences that the decision was taken consciously and contemporaneously within the PSR framework, rather than by default or assumption.<br/>2. No Considerable Change to Contracting Arrangements<br/>Current value: £1,662,268<br/>Proposed value: £2,124,009.06<br/>Increase: £461,741.06<br/>Increase below £500,000 threshold by: £38,257.94<br/>This represents a 27.8% increase in contract value. In isolation, this does not constitute considerable change<br/>The Connect/DH/Deaf Project/DH@TS/Teen Connect Service Specification demonstrates that the proposed contract does not introduce any considerable change when compared with the existing arrangements.<br/>In substance:<br/>•\tthe service model remains a community-based pathway;<br/>•\tthe population, geography, referral routes, and eligibility criteria are unchanged;<br/>•\tdelivery remains with the same VCSE provider, using the same delivery model;<br/>•\tthere is no expansion, reconfiguration, or transfer of material risk.<br/>The ICB actively reviewed the proposed scope, duration, outcomes, delivery model, and risk profile against the existing contract and concluded that none of these elements met the PSR “considerable change” threshold. While the specification is presented in an updated format, the underlying service is materially consistent with the existing contract.<br/>3. Provider Performance and Likely Future Performance<br/>The Service Review Template – PSR Key Criteria provides detailed, narrative based evidence demonstrating that the existing provider:<br/>•\tis satisfying the current contract to a sufficient standard; and<br/>•\tis likely to satisfy the proposed contract to a sufficient standard.<br/>The Service Review has assessed performance against all PSR key criteria, including:<br/>•\tQuality and innovation – supported by/evidenced by service outcomes<br/>•\tValue and stewardship of public funds – demonstrated through return on investment, efficiency gains, cost effectiveness, system savings<br/>•\tIntegration, collaboration, and sustainability – reflected in partnership working, alignment with wider pathways, embedded delivery across relevant parts of the system<br/>•\tAccess, inequalities, and choice – supported by inclusive or adapted provision, reach into underserved or priority populations<br/>•\tSocial value – including local employment, prevention activity, community capacity building, wider social benefits<br/>The ICB considered not only historic performance, but also whether the provider’s established workforce, governance arrangements, and delivery model provide assurance of continued performance under the proposed contract. The proposed contract does not introduce new delivery requirements, expanded cohorts, or increased demand beyond that already successfully managed by the provider. <br/>4. Proportionality and Overall Assurance<br/>In determining the appropriate procurement route, the ICB considered whether a competitive process would deliver additional benefit. Given the continuity of need, the absence of material change, the provider’s sustained performance, and the risks associated with service disruption, the ICB concluded that a competitive process would not be proportionate to the time, cost, and delivery risk involved.<br/>Taken together, the three documents; Record of Decision Making, Service Specification and Service Review Template provide a coherent and auditable justification for the use of Direct Award Process C, demonstrating that:<br/>•\tthe regulatory conditions for Process C are met;<br/>•\tthe decision was taken lawfully, transparently, and proportionately;<br/>•\tthe existing provider sufficiently meets the PSR criteria; and<br/>•\tcontinuity of a clinically effective and system beneficial service is in the best interests of patients and the wider system.<br/>WY ICB therefore remains satisfied that the requirements of the Provider Selection Regime have been properly applied and evidenced.",
