Other Information

This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intended approach notice. The awarding of this contract is subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award.’Award decision-makers;Sarah WaltersMark HarrisonBased on the Authorities assessment and PSR decision making process (taking into account key criteria; quality, value, integration, inequalities and access), ILS LLP intends to award a contract following MSP Process under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR).The authority is proposing a new contract to replace the existing contract at the end of its term and the proposed contracting arrangements are not changing considerably.ILS LLP is of the view that they are able to identify the most suitable provider without running a competitive exercise.Direct Award Processes A (only one provider can provide the services) and B (unrestricted patient choice) and C where an existing provider is satisfying its contract and the new contract will not be materially different from the current contract do not apply and a competitive process is unlikely to add value for patients, taxpayers, or the population.
