Procedure rationaleThe inclusion of these additional services is necessary to meet the evolving needs of the project to deliver the contract for the provision of Crime Survey for England and Wales, and to ensure the successful completion of the objectives of that survey. The originally-awarded contract did not anticipate the need for the specific additional services covered by this notice (i.e. services covering multi-modal questionnaire design, including online questionnaire development and research services related to the implementation of an online survey), which have become essential due to changes in project requirements since the date when the contract was awarded. The work will be iterative, taking place in planned stages (discovery, alpha, beta) with pause and review taking place at each point, adjusting the course of online development as appropriate and to the extent necessary to implement the multimodal questionnaire successfully.
Owing to the proposed modification producing efficiencies elsewhere in the delivery of the contract by the same supplier, the contracting authority expects that the value of the contract will not increase as a result of the implementation of the modification to which this notice relates. The contracting authority therefore believes that the proposed modification falls within the ground for modification permitted by Regulation 72(1)(f) and Regulation 72(5) of the PCR, and can therefore be implemented without a new award procedure.
Further (or alternatively), but without prejudice to its belief in the applicability of Regulation 72(1)(f) and 72(5), the contracting authority believes that Regulation 72(1)(b) and/or 72(1)(e) of the PCR can also be relied on as also permitting the proposed modification.
In the case of Regulation 72(1)(b), this is because the contracting authority believes that (i) the additional services have become necessary, and (ii) have to be provided by the same supplier. This is because efficiencies will be produced elsewhere in the delivery of the survey if the same supplier provides the additional services, thereby avoiding an increase in the aggregate cost of delivering the survey which would be likely if a separate supplier were to deliver the multimodal survey instrument with the existing supplier delivering the balance of the survey. Such efficiencies will thereby avoid significant inconvenience and/or substantial cost duplication for the contracting authority.
For the purposes of Regulation 72(1)(e), the contracting authority also believes (having considered the position) that the proposed modification neither: (1) changes the overall nature of the contract; nor (2) extends its scope considerably; nor (3) is such as to mean that the original procurement would have attracted more or other bidders , or have affected the outcome, had the multimodal survey instrument featured in it. |
