Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition
Why this procedure was chosen
his contract is not an award without prior notice. This contract was awarded via a mini competition from CCS Framework RM6103 -Education Technology - Lot 4 Hardware in September 2021. Modification is to increase value to £11,750,000.00 and extend contract end date to 31st March 2026. This modification is in accordance with Regulation 72 (1) (c): It meets each of the following conditions: (i) the need for modification has been brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority could not have foreseen; (ii) the modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract; (iii) any increase in price does not exceed 50% of the value of the original contract or framework agreement. When EA established this contract, it was envisaged that Apple products would be in demand but with the drastic and sustained change to a more mobile and virtual delivery methods, as well as the need for ease of accessibility to what schools deliver for teachers and pupils alike, the demand has exceeded the initial estimates. The Covid pandemic and post pandemic environment has considerably changed what devices teachers and pupils now require to function adequately in the school setting. This modification does not alter the scope of the contract as the same catalogue of items will remain.
