Award decision makers:
Award of contract was delegated by the Children and Young People Committee to Patrick Warren-Higgs - Executive Director of Adults, Health and Commissioning - in consultation with the Chair and Vice Chair of the Children and Young People Committee.
Conflicts of Interest - No conflict of interested were declared prior to, or during, the preparation of the tender excise, the evaluation or moderation period or the award of the contract.
Relative importance of the key criteria: The decision was made through an evaluation methodology of 10 questions covering the 5 criterion. The greatest weighting was applied to quality and innovation as it was imperative that due to the nature of the service specification and expectations regarding delivery requirements, quality is considered the most important component. This was followed by value to ensure that the service will be delivered within the available financial envelope and for the bidder to provide the local authority with assurances that there will be robust financial and performance monitoring. Added value was considered though social value, recognising the importance of a providers wider contribution to the councils ambitions and benefits to local residents.
The successful supplier obtained the highest scoring combined across the five key criteria:
Quality & Innovation: 34 out of 50;
Value: 26.85 out of 30;
Integration, collaboration and service sustainability: 4.3 out of 5;
Improving access, reducing health inequalities & facilitating choice: 3 out of 5;
Social value: 8 out of 10.
Total score: 76.15%
