Published justification

The service falls under the Health Care Services Provider Selection Regime (PSR) Regulations 2023 . For service continuation, the intention therefore is to waive the requirement to conduct a competitive procurement tender exercise in accordance with the council’s contract rules and directly award the contract to BHRUT (the incumbent provider) under ‘Direct Award Procedure C’ of the PSR regulations.

Review and risk notes
Risks

Under the PSR regulation, the relevant authority must publish an intention to award notice on the Find a Tender Service (FTS) website.

Publication of the intention to award a contract notice triggers the start of the standstill period, which must be observed by the relevant authority . The standstill period for this contract will therefore end on Monday 27th April 2026
