II.2.4) Description of the procurement
The service will deliver immunisations to the population in the North East of Hackney, with a particular focus on the Charedi community, which has lower vaccine uptake rates.
This contract is for the period of 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026. This procurement has been done using Direct Award C under the Provider Selection Regime. The provider invited to bid for this procurement is the current provider of the service.
The PSR regulations set out a number of basic criteria (which deliberately mirror the mandatory Selection Questionnaire requirements under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015) and five key criteria which must be considered when assessing a provider’s ability to deliver a service under Direct Award Process C. These are:
Quality & innovation;
Value;
Integration, collaboration & service sustainability;
Improving access, reducing health inequalities & facilitating choice;
Social value.
An invitation to submit a proposal was issued to the City and Hackney IPC via the London Tender Portal on 13th June 2025. The opportunity to express an interest was issued solely to the City and Hackney IPC.
City and Hackney IPC was required to complete Hackney Council’s standard Selection Questionnaire (SQ) to demonstrate that the basic selection criteria had been met and, therefore, that it had appropriate financial standing to undertake the delivery of the Service. The provider was also required to provide proof that it meets insurance requirements and references proving experience and technical and professional ability.
In order to ensure that the provider meets the PSR key criteria, City and Hackney IPC was required to complete a mandatory template with a defined set of questions matching those criteria. The template was used as the official proposal of the provider and will be attached to the contract’s full terms and conditions.
Once the provider’s response was submitted, their SQ response was evaluated to ensure they met the relevant criteria. The proposal submitted against the key criteria was then issued to an Evaluation Panel consisting of appropriately qualified officers.
All panel members completed a Declaration of Interest Form to confirm that they did not have any conflicts of interest, prior to scoring the proposal.
The response to each key criteria question was initially scored individually by Panel members. Subsequently, a moderation session was arranged to agree final scores for each question.
