- Change Framework Agreement award value to be increased to £12,500,000, Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: Since Dec 2020 there has been an increase in spend against this Framework Agreement, partly attributed to end of year spend but more significantly the increase is the result of additional allocation of Education Restart Wellbeing Funding in response to the impact of Covid-19 on children’s well-being. This funding was initiated in Nov 2020 and it is anticipated that there will be more of this funding provided in financial year 21/22 with the ongoing unforeseen impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on mental health of children and this also will include related counselling of children through play therapy funding. In addition consideration has to be given to the lack of staffing resource within the Education Resources Team, with recruitment of posts within the team still to be completed. Whilst the renewal of the Educational Play Equipment Framework Agreement tender has commenced it is unlikely that it will be awarded prior to the expiry date of the current Framework Agreement i.e. 31/12/21.
