Description
Call-off contract extended for a further 24 months to allow for the ongoing support of the work undertaken by the Best Practice Function.
Rationale
Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: The additional services have become necessary – there is a requirement from the Department to continue to support the research and development activity undertaken by the Best Practice Function and secure a further 2 years of services under the Institute of Teaching framework agreement. There are economic and technical reasons why a change of contractor cannot be made – the Best Practice Function assets are owned by School-Led Development Trust as the contractor for the Institute of Teaching framework agreement. Running a new procurement outside of the Institute of Teaching framework agreement would result in significant duplication of costs and resource for the Department, and the costs and lead time for a new supplier to be able to deliver the services would be disproportionate to the additional term proposed. The value of the additional services will not breach the 50% value threshold for reliance on Regulation 72(1)(b).
