The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the regulations
Explanation:
This contract was awarded under PCR 2015 Regulation 32 (1) (b) (ii), where the service can be supplied only by a particular economic operator, and no reasonable alternative exists.
This is awarded on a 1 year contract to provide essential continuity for patients who have devices relevant to their care.
The award will ensure partnership working continues between the NHS Trust and the Independent Sector that will deliver crucial benefits, and minimise unnecessary disruption for patients at a time of great turmoil within the NHS, whilst longer term pathways are planned. This will also deliver essential financial efficiencies across the local health economy. |
