The effective date of the modification is 01/12/24.
Gloucestershire County Council were the decision makers in this modification and no declared conflicts or potential conflicts of interest of individuals making the decision were identified.
seven.2.2) Reasons for modification
Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee.
Description of the circumstances which rendered the modification necessary and explanation of the unforeseen nature of these circumstances:
The modification has been conducted under Part 2, Section 13 of the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 'modification of contracts and framework agreements during their term'.
The contract modification is attributable to a decision of the relevant authority and meets the criteria in that it does not render the contract materially different in character, and is less than 25% of the lifetime value of the original contract when it was entered into.
The decision of the relevant authority was to allocate a proportion of the Local Stop Smoking Service and Support Grant (LSSSSG) 2024-2029, received from the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) to enhance stop smoking services in the county. The date of the decision to allocate a proportion of the grant was 28/11/2024, with a publication date of 29/11/2024.
The award of the grant was not foreseeable, and so it was omitted from the tender narrative at publication stage.
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: £5,666,843
Total contract value after the modifications
Value excluding VAT: £6,252,793
