| Buyer: | Education Authority |
| Main Category: | Works |
| Procurement Method: | Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition |
| Method Rationale: | Due to circumstances which could not have been foreseen at the time of publication of the previous VEAT Notice, EANI are now required to further increase the value and period of this contract. This is required as additional expenditure has been incurred due to unforeseen additional budget release and the consequent additional funding facilitated to performance of additional works and the unforeseen demand particularly in respect of response works and for works to accommodate children with Special Education Needs. These factors combined with the continued effect of inflation which were not anticipated at the time of the original Contract Notice or subsequent VEAT Notices has precipitated a more rapid consumption of the value of the contract stated in the previous VEAT Notice . This extension is also required due to delays in the ongoing during the procurement process, which has had the ramification of consequent delays on the next phases of the procurement, which could not have been reasonably foreseen and which has resulted in the requirement to increase the value and period of this contract. Regulation 72(1)(c) permits this extension due to unforeseen circumstances which a diligent contracting authority could not have foreseen, the overall nature of the contract is not altered and Modification value is GBP 6 000 000 which does not exceed 50 % of the original contract value. This contingency includes sums to permit work in other Lots (as per the contract and Regulation 72 (1)(a)). The uplift to the contract value also being sought as a precautionary measure to ensure continued service delivery of the SEN placement programme and in particular the potential of further ongoing response maintenance works as may be required before the contract expiry. To secure continuity, the provisions of the contract as referenced in VEAT 2022/S 000-010146 remain. Regulation 72(1) (b) further permits this extension as a change of provider: (i) cannot be made for economic and technical reasons as requirements of interchangeability or interoperability of services procured under the original procurement and given the need to ensure continued access to EANI schools and facilities and could result in partial/total closure of schools; and (ii) will cause significant inconvenience and duplication of costs. EANI envisages new contract award by no later than 31/08/25 and the contract extension shall permit the contracting authority to terminate the contract before this date upon the provision of three months’ notice. |
