Dear Mr Mason

Re:  Freedom of Information Request;

Ref: 11-2010

Thank you for your email dated 25^th January 2010 where you requested
information with regard to the Trust's internal transport for the likes of
internal mail, pathology specimens, sterile services department,
electro-biomedical engineering, pharmacy, patient records and stores.

The information you have requested is as follows:-

1. Who is your current provider?

Our current provider is Wirral University Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation
Trust.

2. How much do you pay for the services per year?

We currently pay £120,000.00 p.a. under an SLA for internal transport.

3. When was the contract/services level agreement last market tested
to ensure best value?

The SLA is reviewed and re-negotiated annually with Wirral University
Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.  Market testing is not
appropriate because we share the same site as our services provider and
best value secured by piggy-backing off their existing services and
applying sense checks to ensure prices are reasonable.

4. Who is the person(s) responsible for such transport and what are
their postal, phone and email addresses?

Responsible person is Paul Corbett, Acting Deputy Director of Finance,
Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology, NHS Foundation Trust;  Telephone
