Justification

In accordance with the regulatory provision for procuring services under a state of urgency, this procurement process is following an Accelerated Open Procedure. There is a requirement for the services to commence 1st August 2020 due to expiry of the existing contract on 31st July 2020. The procurement timetable reflects the extreme level of urgency required to protect continuity of care for patients at a time of unprecedented emergency in the health and social care system resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. This has placed additional unforeseen pressure on the capability of the CCG to follow its usual procurement timescales and it is deemed in the best interest of patients to procure the services via an accelerated procedure.
Therefore, bidders are urged to carefully review the constricted procurement timetable; to conduct early review of all of the procurement documentation and to raise any clarification questions as soon as possible and in accordance with the stipulated deadlines. The CCG will also endeavour to respond to clarifications as quickly as possible to assist bidders to produce the best possible tender.
