A new contract is put in place for a period of 12 months to afford the newly forming NHS North West London CCG time to agree the approach to commission this service at NWL ICS level in line with national and ICS guidance to ensure smoother, less complicated, non-duplicated service delivery.

The contracting authority has assessed the supplier to be the only feasible, capable and affordable solution to ensure continuity of these essential services within the local footprint of the CCG, building on existing infrastructure, local assets and knowledge and using the investment to ensure optimal system sustainability both in terms of workforce resilience, and within the finite financial resources available at this time.
Observing its obligations under the NHS (Procurement Patient Choice and Competition)(No.2) Regulations 2013, the CCG has assessed the appropriateness to award this interim contract directly through a non-competitive process to secure continuity of services for NWL residents from an incumbent provider which has been delivering and developing the current services through a recent 2-year contract.
During this interim contract period, the CCG will review and assess its future commissioning requirements.
