The webform ensured that offers of support were recorded effectively and taken forward as necessary.</p><p>Offers were triaged and those which could potentially deliver significant quantities of high-quality PPE quickly were prioritised. All offers then went into exactly the same Technical Assurance, Closing (i.e. contract negotiation) and Procurement (i.e. contract award) process, managed by officials. This process led to the award of 339 contracts by the Department of Health and Social Care. A high number of offers were rejected at different stages of being taken through this process for different reasons.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Northampton North answering member printed Michael Ellis question first answered 02/11/2021 15:42:53 answering member 4116 label Biography information for Sir Michael Ellis

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/11/2021 answer text <p>Suppliers’ offers were taken through a number of review stages by the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) team made up of civil servants. At various stages of the review process offers were declined as a result of prices being too high. HM Treasury put in place measures with which the Department of Health and Social Care had to comply in order to protect the taxpayer from mispricing. Measures included comparing the latest spot prices for each offer against market prices and benchmarking prices to make sure the Government was not overpaying.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Northampton North answering member printed Michael Ellis question first answered 04/11/2021 14:25:38 answering member 4116 label Biography information for Sir Michael Ellis
