The lotProcurement structure

Lot #1Provider Selection Regime (PSR)Planned

Provider Selection Regime (PSR)<br/>Decision to carry out a Competitive Process and award a contract using the <br/>framework provider direct award facility<br/>ESNEFT2738 - Breast Clinic PSR Insourcing. Additional information: As of the 1st January 2024 the selection process to identify and award contracts to Providers <br/>of healthcare services has been removed from the Public Contract Regulations 2015 and are <br/>now part of the new Provider Selection Regime (PSR). This report is to seek approval to <br/>award a contract under the PSR procedures. The PSR process provides greater flexibility <br/>than the traditional procurement procedures through a number of routes to award contracts. <br/>These include Direct Awards (under specific circumstances), Most Capable Provider, and <br/>Competition. Whilst the PSR process provides greater flexibility, ESNEFT’s default starting <br/>position for the selection of a Provider and award of contracts under PSR is competition and <br/>Value for Money.<br/>The DMT confirm that they have completed the PSR decision making toolkit for making a <br/>PSR contract award using the competitive process. A copy of this will be made available for <br/>the commercial folder.

Question for the bidWhat to do with it
How often do SMEs win?
i

How often small and medium firms win.

Share of awards where the winner’s size is known.

The counts under this question show how many awards have a known supplier size.

Last 36 months.

Buyer: 11 of 16 known-size awards · market: CPV 8511 · East of England, n=245
69%54%

Small firms have won here. Neither number says whether you qualify; it describes who has been winning.

How often do local suppliers win?
i

How often local firms win similar work.

Winners with a registered address in the delivery region, out of awards with a known address.

Local means the winner is registered in the region where that award was delivered. The market figure counts awards delivered in East of England.

A local branch does not count if the registered address is elsewhere.

Last 36 months.

69%73%

How long to a decision?
i

How long buyers here take to decide after bids close.

Middle value in days from the bid deadline to the award date, on competitions that published both.

Only decided tenders count, so slow ones still waiting are not in.

Last 36 months.

Buyer: no decision dates published · market: CPV 8511 · East of England, n=5
—61 days

About this data
  • Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0. New notices arrive through the day; the figures are rebuilt nightly.
  • Two views, kept apart. The authority’s own track record and the wider market for the same kind of work sit side by side and are never mixed. Where the local picture is too thin, a figure widens to a broader market and says which one it used.
  • Forecasts are labelled. The price forecast and its range, possible competitors and the earlier-work matches are our estimates from past awards: not published facts, not win chances and not price advice. Official notices do not say who is bidding.
  • Every figure shows what it rests on. Not every notice publishes a bid count, a value or a delivery region, so each figure carries the number of records behind it, and one built on few records is marked as such. The on a figure explains it; the counting rules are in the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.
