## Description
The existing contract C256195 has reached the maximum number of extensions permitted under the framework terms and cannot be further extended compliantly.
The incumbent supplier has supported the Inquiry since the commencement of hearings and has developed a detailed, operational understanding of the venue, hearing schedule, and technical requirements. This includes the ability to rig and de-rig the hearing space rapidly and reliably in response to changing timetables, adjournments, and evidential needs.
This level of efficiency is the result of sustained, site-specific experience rather than generic capability. A new supplier, while potentially technically competent, would require a mobilisation and familiarisation period and would not be able to deliver the same speed or continuity of service immediately. This introduces a material risk to operational continuity and the smooth running of hearings.
