Published justification

The current framework 70358 Supply and Delivery of Paper Hygiene Products for the Education Authority Northern Ireland commenced on the 1 May 2018 with a framework award value of £1,400,000 . The impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in an unprecedented uptake in demand for paper hygiene products which could not have been foreseen by EANI. A modification was undertaken in January 2021 to increase the value of the framework. This modification was completed and was less than 50% of the original contract value and extended the framework until 31.07.21. The impact of COVID-19 had delayed the procurement. EA now require a new modification for the extension to the framework until 31.10.2021, to allow for the evaluation and implementation of the new framework which will commence 01.11.2021. The modification to this Contract is in accordance with Regulation 72(c) of the PCR2-15 in that: (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.
