Description

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 Procurement Act 2023 do not apply to this award. Cumberland Council, acting as lead authority on behalf of both Cumberland Council and Westmorland and Furness Council, intends to award a contract for the provision of Cumbria Substance Use: Treatment Service, under the competitive process of the PSR. The maximum total value of the contract over the full potential contract term (including the extension period) is up to £56m excluding VAT. The Council does not guarantee any spend against this Contract beyond the annual contract value stated for Year 1. The maximum budget available for the initial term of Year 1 is £4,235,981 per annum excluding VAT. The budget amounts set out are indicative only. The initial contract period is six years. The anticipated start date is 1st October 2027, and the initial period will end on 30th September 2033. Two optional extension periods of up to 24 months each are available. If both extensions are utilised, the contract will end on 30th September 2037. Use of these extensions is entirely at the discretion of the Council and will depend on both the success in achieving the required outcomes and the availability of further funding. Bids were evaluated according to the criteria as set out in the Invitation to Tender. In accordance with Regulation 12 of the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, the contracting authority shall observe a standstill period of eight working days following publication of the notice of intention to award.
