Procedure rationaleThe modification represents an extension beyond the original contractual term and is supported by Regulation 72(1)(c), with approval obtained via Accounting Officer guidance in recognition of the cumulative value and duration exceeding standard thresholds, and is required due to the scale, duration and strategic dependency on the TFM programme. <br/>The services are critical to NHSBT’s core operations, including blood, tissue and transplant services, which are subject to stringent regulatory requirements including Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and MHRA <br/>The current supplier has an embedded, trained workforce and established service delivery model across multiple highly regulated sites, including compliance with GMP standards, mandatory training requirements, and operational procedures specific to NHSBT environments. <br/>A change of provider at this stage would present: <br/>Significant operational risk to continuity of services supporting patient care <br/>Risks to regulatory compliance and audit assurance <br/>Material disruption arising from workforce transfer and revalidation requirements (TUPE applies) |
