Decision details

The Director of Public Health:

1. Approved authority to proceed with a competitive procurement process, as outlined in this report and in line with Contract Procedure Rules (CPRs) 3.1.6, to procure a suitable provider to deliver a new Leeds Cancer and Long Term Conditions Community Prevention and Awareness Service for a period of 5 years (with an option to extend for a period of up to 24 months in any combination) with a maximum budget of £67,680 per annum (£473,760 for the overall 7 year contract period).
2. Noted that a further report to approve the contract award which will be a direct consequence of this decision will be submitted for approval at the end of the procurement process and will therefore be a significant operational decision at most which will not be subject to call in.
