The authority also focused on how bidders were to deal with cancellations.\u003cbr/\u003e \u003cbr/\u003eThe successful bidder scored a `good` for the singular question in this section (Improving Patient Access) covering the full requirements of the question and providing clear initiatives and examples to support their response in improving access for the patient and supporting the patient.\u003cbr/\u003e \u003cbr/\u003eA social value theme of Tackling Economic Inequality was chosen by the authority, which focused on how bidders could commit to creating employment opportunities in the East Midlands region, throughout the duration of the contract delivery, focusing on sub-contracting, employment of local workforce and/or apprenticeships or work placements.\u003cbr/\u003e \u003cbr/\u003eThe successful bidder scored a `satisfactory` for the singular question in this section (Tackling Economic Inequality), broadly meeting what was expected for the criteria, with no significant areas of concern.\u003cbr/\u003e \u003cbr/\u003eOverall, the successful bidder scored the highest across all bidders, considering the 5 criteria of the Provider Selection Regime 2023 as weighted by the authority.",
