Direct award justification
Additional or repeat goods, services or works - extension or partial replacement
This direct award is justified as a Special Case Under Schedule 5 Direct Awards of PA2023 under clause 7 in relation to Additional or repeat goods, services or works -5
The public contract concerns the supply of goods, services or works by the existing supplier which are intended as an extension to, or partial replacement of, existing goods, services or works in circumstances where-
(a) a change in supplier would result in the contracting authority receiving goods, services or works that are different from, or incompatible with, the existing goods, services or works, and
(b) the difference or incompatibility would result in disproportionate technical difficulties in
operation or maintenance
A change of supplier would result in services being different from those provided by the existing supplier. Suppliers were matched with schools in 2023 and have been onboarded with school values, staff structure, policies, procedures and systems and their delivery and methodology has been adapted overtime to deliver against them.
A change in supplier would result in a requirement for extended supplier training, stakeholder management and mobilisation to end users, disproportionate to that needed to continue the service.
