seven.2.2) Reasons for modification

Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire.

Description of the economic or technical reasons and the inconvenience or duplication of cost preventing a change of contractor:

It was the intention that a Single Point of access using a digital platform, which also presents the option of onward referral including other services traditionally delivered in Primary Care would be procured from 1 April 2025 on a SY wide basis. However, due to financial pressures within the ICB and therefore unable to progress through a route for investment for the planning round 2025/26, places have no alternative but to procure services locally until this is resolved.
Considering the circumstances and the timescales of undertaking a full procurement a Modification notice for initially a 6-month period is required to allow for this work to be undertaken.
All places have agreed to work collaboratively to progress this in developing a SY ICB service specification for Community Eye Care alongside progressing the SPA option.

Updated total contract value before the modifications (taking into account possible earlier contract modifications, price adaptions and average inflation)

Value excluding VAT: £890,494
