FOI Request Response
I am writing to confirm that I have now completed my search for the information which you requested.
Request
I would like to submit a Freedom of Information request relating to the Insourcing of Clinical Services Framework (SBS10203). Specifically, I am seeking information to help understand the supplier landscape and market composition under this agreement.
Please could you provide the following details:
- Total spend across the framework for the following periods:
- January to December 2023 (calendar year)
- January to December 2024 (calendar year)
- January to June 2025 (year-to-date)
- Quarterly breakdown of this spend for each of the above periods (i.e. Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4 for 2024 and Q1, Q2 for 2025).
- Supplier-level breakdown of the above spend:
- Total spend per supplier
- Ranking of the top 10 suppliers by total value for each period
- Confirmation of whether all reported spend is based solely on Order Forms/Contract Control Notices (CCNs) declared by suppliers, or whether it also includes any Trust-reported or centrally collected data.
If possible, I would appreciate the data in Excel format.
Please let me know if any part of this request requires clarification. I would be grateful if you could process this request under the terms of the Freedom of Information Act 2000.
