Section four. Procedure
four.1) Description
four.1.1) Form of procedure
Award of a contract without prior publication of a call for competition in the cases listed below
- The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the regulations
Explanation:
This is an existing service that has been in place since 2010. The CCG has assessed that the service needs to continue whilst a review is completed and new commissioning plans are developed by the newly formed North West London CCG from April 2021.
The existing contract is being modified through contract variation to extend its term by 6 months. The existing value of the contract of £1,033,797 will increase by £500,000 during this additional term.
SCH UCC is a valued local service that is located close to Grenfell Tower. Any change to services will require consultation and an appropriate timeline to deliver. Currently staff from the UCC (whilst walk in services are suspended) are redeployed to critical covid services including mass vaccination sites and discharge hubs which in turn supports elective recovery.
This modification is necessary to ensure continuity of these services for local patients.
The CCG has considered its obligations under the NHS (Procurement Patient Choice and Competition) (No.2) Regulations 2013 and assesses that the incumbent provider offers the safest solution to ensure this continuity at this time, particularly having regard to the priorities and resource pressures associated with the local NHS response to COVID-19.
The CCG has assessed this modification to be reasonable, proportionate and lawful under Regulation 72(1)(c) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (as amended).
