The Authority awarded a single contract to the Tender that is the most economically advantageous in the TWM lot (Lot 8).<br/><br/>A key principle in the Hertfordshire and West Essex ICS is that of collaborative working.

Therefore, the terms of any contract resulting from this procurement shall permit partner organisations to join the agreement at the agreed ENHT contract rates and under the existing terms and conditions. ENHT’s ICS partners are the Hertfordshire Community NHS Trust (HCT), Hertfordshire Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust (HPFT), The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust (PAH) and West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust (WHTHT).<br/><br/>The estimated total value of the procurement was an estimate based on all ICS partners joining the agreement.<br/><br/>Spend and volumes may vary throughout the life of the contract(s).
