Rationale
Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: A competitive process was undertaken in line with The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 using the Competitive Process. At the time of the tender deadline no submissions were received, and a decision was made to abandon the procurement. A decision was made to undergo an extension and variation, to increase the current contract value, for the extension period regarding Lot 1 - School Nursing Service. For Lot 2, Child Vision Screening, a decision was made to not extend the service beyond its initial term.
