NOTIFICATION OF INTENTION TO AWARD: The Royal Borough of Kingston is intending to award a contract to an existing provider following Direct Award Process C of the UK Health Care Services (PSR) Regs 2023 for STI online testing service for 16 - 24 age group in Kingston. REASONS FOR THE AWARD DECISION IN FAVOUR OF THE CHOSEN SUPPLIER: -Key criteria assessment was undertaken in accordance with the Health Care Services (PSR) Regs 2023 -The assessment was made in accordance with Direct Award Process C -The key criteria used to assess the existing provider's current and future performance were based on Annex D of The Provider Selection Regime Statutory Guidance with a focus on: - safety - effectiveness - positive experience - well-led - sustainably resourced - equitable - innovation Particular focus was given to the benefits of the integration of the current service. The services are rendered in partnership with the NHS and local authorities.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Health services (85100000); 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.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 8538,3731 median · 19.7 average (22,929 of 38,373 with a bid count)1.8 average (24,591 of 38,373 with named award suppliers)10 comparable price pairs

“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.
