Legal Justification
Cornwall Council are proposing to modify the domestic abuse and sexual violence electronic case management system contract evoking The Public Contract Regulations 2015, regulation 32(2)2 (b) (ii) i.e. awarding a contract by negotiation without prior publication to a particular economic operator where competition is absent for technical reasons. The modification to the contract would include the addition of the Drug and Alcohol Action Team (DAAT), Anti-social Behaviour (ASB) and MANTA (Multi-Agency Information Sharing Platform) requirements. The major benefits of bringing the systems together is that people experiencing multiple disadvantage are continually falling between services and having to repeatedly engage and retell their story. Amalgamating these systems and rollout out of the virtual information sharing platform delivers more efficient information sharing, reducing duplicate assessment, common risk management and risk reduction and provides a platform for implementing future real time feedback from people utilising the services. As service users give their permission to share, everyone involved in a person’s care can share information and work to a shared plan. In addition, this aggregation will rationalise the contract management, cap expenditure, add value and enable further development of a multi-agency complex needs solution at zero cost. The proposed contract end date will be 20 August 2024 with a total contract value of GBP 260 590.
