"description": "This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award under PSR.\nThe award decision-makers were members of the following forums:\n\u2022 Surrey Heartlands ICB Commissioning, Contracting and Commercial Committee\n\u2022 Surrey Heartlands ICB Executive Team\nNo conflicts of interest were identified.\nThe existing provider was assessed against the key criteria which were weighted according to importance in terms of service delivery and scored satisfactorily against the assessed criteria as follows:\nQuality and Innovation 25% \nQuality is foundational in providing healthcare services and the whole model of integrated neighbourhood teams, in a community environment and for a vulnerable cohort of people, demonstrates innovation in the delivery of joined healthcare. \nThe Surrey Downs Health \u0026 Care Model integrates urgent, planned, proactive, and specialist services through a single joined-up pathway and the Integrated Neighbourhood Team Blueprint facilitates shared care planning.\nSpecialist Services operate under a consultant-led, hub-and-spoke model to ensure equitable access to expertise across all neighbourhoods, while Community Hospitals provide step-up and step-down care, rehabilitation, and outpatient services that directly reduce acute hospital demand. This fully integrated model of care has been shown to:\n\u2022\tReduce Hospital Admissions and Length of Stay\n\u2022\tImprove Patient Experience and Continuity\n\u2022\tEnhance System Efficiency and Responsiveness\n\u2022\tEmpower Workforce and Enable Smarter Governance\n\u2022\tSupport Equity and Localised Innovation\nStrong quality metrics, safety initiatives, clinical governance, and continual assessment and improvement ensures high quality standards and patient care, alongside a commitment to agile change and innovation as required. Quality and Innovation are highly valued for this service alongside Improving access, reducing health inequalities, and facilitating choice and \nIntegration, Collaboration \u0026 Service Sustainability such that these are weighted equally highly in significance, particularly as poor care and an inability to adapt leads to poor outcomes.\nImproving access, reducing health inequalities, and facilitating choice 25% \nEnsuring services reach all patient populations and are accessible by them, especially vulnerable groups, is critical to NHS principles and the services under delivery. Addressing inequalities, providing wrap around care and supporting people holistically is the essence of this service and the model in which it operates, preventing gaps in the delivery of care and missed opportunities for preventative initiatives across diverse communities. Choice can be expressed and accommodated by the nature of the care coordination approach offered. \nService planning is driven by robust population health data which shapes where and how services are deployed, ensuring they are responsive to the greatest need.\nNeighbourhood Boards, chaired by local authority CEOs, guide investment and prioritisation at a community level, embedding services within local governance structures. This mechanism ensures that the Core20Plus cohort - including high-intensity service users and those with frailty - are actively targeted for proactive care, narrowing inequality gaps.\nIntegration, Collaboration \u0026 Service Sustainability 25% \nEffective collaboration enhances service efficiency, ensures seamless patient care interactions and prevents duplication of efforts. The multi-agency coordination and workforce integration offered is a key tenet of the service, strengthening the overall healthcare system in Surrey Downs. Evidence is exemplified by Surrey Down Health \u0026 Care\u0027s mature, place-based model which supports nationally recognised Integrated Neighbourhood Teams (INTs), which operate with devolved budgets, a shared workforce, and integrated leadership. Governance operates as a Joint Venture under a Consortium Agreement, giving all partners an equal voice and requiring decisions to be made by consensus. This structure fosters genuine co-ownership of outcomes and has been critical to sustaining service delivery over the past seven years.\nValue 15% \nFinancial sustainability is essential but should not compromise the aforementioned Key Criteria. Value is clearly demonstrated through SDHC\u0027s strong track record of delivering financial sustainability alongside high-quality, person-centred care. Tangible cost savings are evident in the integrated MDT model, which has reduced A\u0026E attendances, non-elective admissions, and GP contacts. Beyond financial metrics, patients, carers, and staff consistently report high satisfaction, valuing the integrated, responsive, and personalised care the service model provides. SDHC maximises resource use and avoids duplication, delivering measurable savings alongside improved patient outcomes. The model eliminates duplicate tests, multiple points of access and repetition, provides for upskilling and varied deployment opportunities for staff and reduces churn and the need for recruitment and training expenditure.\nSocial Value 10% \nSocial Value is clearly evidenced through sustained commitment to community engagement, workforce wellbeing, environmental responsibility, and partnership working. Social value is embedded through active collaboration with voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) partners.\nStakeholder engagement is embedded into service planning through structures like the Lay Partner Group, Neighbourhood Boards, and voluntary sector partnerships, ensuring that service design reflects lived experience and community priorities. Continuous feedback loops with citizens, carers, and frontline staff enable rapid adjustments to services while strengthening trust and ownership.\nStandstill Period and Regulatory Context:\nThis 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 Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and the Procurement Act Regulations 2023 do not apply to this award.
