We procure contracts for services from a range of providers. Contracts vary from small one-off purchases to large works or service contracts.
Details of all of our contracts are available here. When procuring services we ensure fair opportunity, competition and value for money.
The form of procurement we use varies depending on the nature of the product or service being procured but can include Any Qualified Provider competitive and non-competitive tendering.
View the diagram that demonstrates the process used by the CCG.
We follow public procurement regulations and guidelines when determining the form of procurement and our approach. The regulations mean we cannot favour providers simply because they are already in contract with us, an NHS organisation, located in our area, or employing local people.
We operate our procurements in a fair and transparent way in accordance with the Principles and Rules of Co-operation and Competition published by the Department of Health.
In line with the requirements set out in the Statutory Guidance for CCGs on managing conflicts of interest in CCGs published in July 2016 by NHS England, a register of procurement decisions taken is maintained, which includes:
This enables us to demonstrate that we are acting fairly and transparently and in the best interest of patients across Warrington.
Any decisions we make to take a service out to the market for procurement will be notified on our website and subsequent details of the successful bidder or bidders will be published below.
With effect from 21st March 2016, ALL healthcare contract adverts and notices must now be placed on Contracts Finder which is a site where all Central Government Departments and agencies (including the NHS) are required to place advertisements for all contract opportunities for goods and services.
Providers and future providers should access Contracts Finder to understand any opportunities that we are currently procuring.
