Opportunity Overview
This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) notice that this provider selection process has been abandoned and a contract has not been awarded. This process has been abandoned under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Procurement Act 2023 do not apply
The contract for Lot 1: Norfolk prisons consisting of HMP Bure, HMP Wayland and HMP Norwich has not been awarded.
The reasons for abandonment are as follows:
The Commissioner has made the decision to abandon the procurement process and not award a contract for the Services having taken and considered confidential and privileged legal advice. The confidentiality and privilege in that advice is maintained and will not be waived by the Commissioner.
Since the procurement was first launched, there have also been significant and material changes in the commissioning and prison landscape. Abandoning this procurement will enable the Commissioner to revise its requirements, thereby futureproofing the service.
Abandoning this procurement also has the benefit of ensuring that changes in the Sentencing Act and the wider commissioning landscape (including transfer of statutory responsibility from the Commissioner to ICBs) are able to inform any further procurement in a manner that meets the evolving needs of the population
