Section four. Procedure

four.1) Description

four.1.1) Type of procedure

Award of a contract without prior publication of a call for competition in the cases listed below

  • The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the regulations

Explanation:

£154k has already been invested to deliver the culture programme to the executive team and next level leaders. It is key to continue this work and maintain momentum to reinforce and embed to realise the value. Work done to date includes diagnosing and defining the current and future state as well as beginning the shift in thinking and behaviours. This initial phase of the work (referred to as phase 1) should have been complete by now, the additional workshops are mop ups for those that previously didn’t attend and a sessions to include Dounreay in the programme. In essence the programme is mid-flight and it would be challenging to bring in a new provider at this stage.
