It is published by the Health Research Authority (HRA) for the purpose of extending an existing contract for the development, maintenance and support of two principal and six supplementary systems/portals/sites, pending completion of a transition by the HRA to a new microservices architecture for the systems/portals/sites. The HRA will rely upon Regulation 72(1)(b) for this extension on the basis that decommissioning and transition services cannot be provided by another provider and to appoint another provider would cause significant inconvenience and substantial duplication of costs to the HRA given the intricacies of the system and the fact that work is already underway - through a separately procured delivery partner - to develop the future system. The value of the extension does not exceed 50% of the original value of the contract. Please see section II.2.4 and IV.1.1 for more detail. ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** Not published - **CPV codes:** 48600000, 48800000, 72200000, 72320000 - **Delivery regions:** UK - **Description:** The contract being extended was awarded for the provision of development, maintenance and support services for the HRA's Principal Operational Systems.
