I.e., 1. Quality and innovation2. Value3. Integration, collaboration, and service sustainability4. Improving access, reducing health inequalities, and facilitating choice5. Social valueOnce the KLoEs had been agreed a project group sought evidence based on information taken from several sources to assess the extent to which the KLoEs had been met during the current contract. This evidence was collated, and a summary narrative position was produced to identify the key elements from their local perspectives, and to produce a comprehensive portfolio of evidence to support a direct award under Direct Award C. The criteria above were weighted with equal importance and evidence documented accordingly from the provider.Based on the evidence submitted, the Primary Care commissioners were satisfied that the Direct Award of a contract to HUC is in line with the required criteria and are satisfied that HUC is an appropriate and suitable provider for the future. The assessment against each criterion was undertaken based on the current service delivery model and performance. The supplier meets all the requirements specified to the satisfaction of the Commissioner, and it is expected that they will satisfy the requirements of the new contract going forwards. → This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) confirmation of contract award notice.
