Legal Justification

New funding under the Sustainable Warmth Program has been announced by Central Government with a bid submission deadline with delivery partners of August 2021. Delivery of the scheme will take place between January 2021 and March 2023. It is not appropriate to procure a new contractor during the delivery of such a program of work as the current contractor has been identified in the bid as the delivery partner. If a change in delivery partner could be negotiated with government, this would cause unacceptable delays to the project delivery given the short delivery time frame. The project will be offering advice and assistance to vulnerable households and a change in delivery partner will cause unacceptable confusion to those households. (ii) The services required under the contract will not be changed from the original contract. (iii) The increased value of the contract is 40% of the value of the original contract.
