Echo Scans Additional Services

Description

We are a department that strive to support staff to grow and expand their clinical and academic scope of practice to ensure high quality healthcare that is innovative and forefront of patient care and research. When one of the team applied for the scholarship we had greater staffing numbers within the team, however prior to confirmation of the award staff have resigned but we are a forward-thinking, person positive department that would still like to support this staff member. To ensure that the above does not come at a detrimental cost to productivity of the department we need to backfill the staff involved as we are not able to absorb the workload of this staff member. Lot 1: This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intention to award notice. The awarding of this contract is subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award. The publication of this notice marks the start of the standstill period. Representations by providers must be made to the relevant authority by 16/06/2025. This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award under the PSR.<br/><br/>This decision has been authorised by the Cardio Management Team at South Tees. There was no declared conflicts of interest.<br/><br/>The reason that South Tees have chosen Xyla as the most suitable provider (MSP) is due to the fact they know Trust and departments policies and procedures, they have a very good record on site and would be able to hit the ground running. This will aid the department with minimal downtime and disruption to patients. The trust decision makers believe a new provider would not be able to fulfill the requirement as successfully as the identified provider and therefore the decision was made to complete the MSP process. The selected supplier has previously carried out this work for the Trust to the standards required.
