The criteria applied to this intention to award was: Basic Selection Criteria - Mandatory and Discretionary Grounds - Suitability to pursue activity Key Criteria Quality & Innovation - 35% Quality is weighted highest because it represents the core purpose of the service - delivering safe, effective, patient centred care with the ability to adapt and improve. A higher weighting ensures providers who demonstrate strong clinical governance, innovation and measurable outcomes are appropriately prioritised. Innovation as part of this and ensures new and adaptive approaches where relevant, enhancing the service delivery in ensuring quality and safety standards. Value - 20% Value is weighted moderately to capture efficiency of bed usage and cost effectiveness, while ensuring provider selection does not become cost driven. This supports fair and proportionate evaluation and maintains quality as the primary focus. Integration, collaboration and service sustainability - 25% This criterion is weighted moderately because effective collaboration within the wider health and care system, specifically with the Pocklington Integrated Care Hub, is a core feature of the service model, enabling patients to receive the right assessment and support whilst staying in the beds to promote recovery and rehabilitation. It supports ICS aims for joined up, system wide working. Improving Access, reducing health inequalities and facilitating choice - 10% Improving access and inequalities to reflect equitable access, addressing relevant local health inequalities, and ensuring the service is configured around population needs. This weighting ensures providers who contribute to reducing inequalities are appropriately recognised. Social Value - 10% Social Value is weighted at the required minimum standard and ensure providers contribute to local economic, social and environmental wellbeing, while maintaining focus on core service outcomes. NHS Humber and North Yorkshire ICB has conducted an assessment of the Provider against the stated Basic Selection Criteria and Key Criteria and considers that the existing provider is satisfying its current existing contract, will likely satisfy the new contract to a sufficient standard, and the proposed contracting arrangements are not changing considerably.
