This is a Provider Selection Regime
(PSR) intention to award 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. The standstill period begins on
the day after the publication of this
notice. Representations by providers

serves as an intention to award under

Award decision-makers;

Rebecca Parish
“Based 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 to an existing provider
following Direct Award Process C 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 the existing
provider is satisfying the contract to a
sufficient standard and will likely satisfy
the proposed contract to a sufficient
standard.
Direct Award Processes A (only one
provider can provide the services) and
B (unrestricted patient choice) do not
apply and a competitive process is
unlikely to add value for patients,
taxpayers, or the population.
The publication of this notice marks the
start of the standstill period.
Representations by providers must be
made to decision makers by midnight
on 24/02/2026 (8 working days from
publication) via email to:
Xander.mcconville@nhs.net
This contract has not yet formally been
awarded; this notice serves as an
intention to award under the PSR. The
contract will not be awarded until the
period has ended and any
representations have been considered.
No conflicts of interest were identified
during the procurement process.
No subcontracting is expected.
