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

A new regional tender renewal process has been initiated and is currently at evaluation stage
(see notice number 029933-002 on www.find-tender.service.gov.uk). The delay in awarding
this tender has been necessitated by regional digital change initiatives (introduction of a new
LIMS and a new NIPACS+ Radiography reporting system) and by extended cost evaluation
by DHPSS NI with the result being that this current contract is to be extended, as indicated,
to 13 September 2025 (with provision for up to 6 months further extension) to allow for
evaluation and subsequent implementation. This extension is being conducted in line with Reg
72(1)(b)(ii) of the 2015 PCR.

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