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):
Delaying the award to conduct a full application of the PSR would be likely to pose a risk to patient or public safety.
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:
Due to the representations received during the standstill period for the T2 Procurement, which are currently being reviewed, it has been agreed by the NHS NEL ICB Primary Care Contracts Sub-Committee to extend the existing contract for up to 12 months in line with Regulation 14 of PSR which sets out a special process for certain urgent awards or modifications.
This extension does not affect the contract duration of the proposed contract that is subject to the ongoing representation process.
Without this extension, there would be no provider in place to ensure continuity of primary care services when the contract comes to it's natural end on 30/09/2025. Therefore, Regulation 14 is being applied as it is not practically possible to complete the full PSR process before the contract expires.
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: £30,803,218.60
Total contract value after the modifications
