## Description
The NHS Somerset ICB as Lead Commissioner is directly awarding a contract to the existing provider Somerset NHS Foundation Trust in accordance with the criteria outlined in Regulation 6(3) and 7 Direct Award Process A of the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. 
Somerset NHS Foundation Trusts provides acute, community and mental health services across Somerset.  As the main NHS Provider in the Somerset Integrated Care System (ICS), Somerset NHS Foundation Trust is a key system partner within Somerset ICS and is the only partner providing acute services across all ages of patients within the ICS footprint, including provision of Levels 1 and 2 urgent and emergency services and associated emergency inpatient services, together with other essential secondary care services such as surgical and medical specialties (elective and non-elective), Diagnostic, screening and/or Pathology services, and Cancer and/or Radiotherapy Services.  Within the core contract, Somerset NHS Foundation Trust provides a wide range of community-based health services to the people of Somerset.  It also provides both adult and children's mental health crisis services, among others, within the core contract.  Some of the community mental health services provided are interdependent with other services provided by Somerset NHS Foundation Trust due to the need for cross-specialty and cross-service working.
