Description

This notice is in relation to modification of an existing Contract, pursuant to regulation 72(1)(b) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, and is published for transparency purposes. The modification involves continued provision of Neighbourhood Planning Support services for a further 12 months to 31st March 2025. Where it is considered necessary to satisfy genuine, unexpected and robustly evidenced increases or changes in demand, the Authority continues to reserve the right to re-profile, increase or decrease annual budgets. The Contract modification shall also provide comprehensive exit services over a 12 month 'Tail-end' period from 1st April 2025, to ensure appropriate completion / closure of all pre-commissioned, outstanding legacy support packages awarded to customers. To note this 'Tail-end' period would be expected to run in parallel with any potential replacement contract for the core services, where there is a change of supplier. Note that due to the demand-led nature of services, and a service mix which involves different VAT treatments for different elements, the actual / final ex VAT value of the modification may ultimately vary from that stated within this notice.
