seven.2) Information about modifications
seven.2.1) Description of the modifications
Nature and extent of the modifications (with indication of possible earlier changes to the contract):
Modified the Contract so that it now requires the Service Provider to continue to manage the social prescribing link workers assigned to each of the Primary Care Networks ("PCNs") in Wakefield during the extended term, in consideration for an additional £80,995.00
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:
A change in contractor cannot be made for economic and technical reasons. As set out in the Relevant Circumstances (above), PCNs were formally established across England from 1st July 2019 with an obligation on PCNs provide its patients with access to a social prescribing service. This was after the initial procurement, at which time the establishment of PCNs was unforeseeable and the Council's requirements in respect of the Live Well Wakefield Service managing social prescribing link workers assigned to each of the PCNs were unknown. The Service Provider is responsible for the provision of the Live Well Wakefield Service until 31st March 2023. During the extended term until 31st March 2023, it is fundamental that the Live Well Wakefield Service and the social prescribing link workers are effectively integrated and managed together to ensure service delivery is effective (with access to established infrastructure, reporting mechanisms and experience). It is not economically or technically feasible for another contractor to do so and notwithstanding which, for reasons as explained above, competition is very likely to be absent.
seven.2.3) Increase in price
Updated total contract value before the modifications (taking into account possible earlier contract modifications, price adaptions and average inflation)
Value excluding VAT: £1,907,855
Total contract value after the modifications
Value excluding VAT: £2,489,886
