Extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable for the contracting authority/entity and in accordance with the strict conditions stated in the directive

Published justification

Following representations from providers, the relevant authority has abandoned its procurement of Primary Care Services (including Substance Misuse) and Mental Health Services (including Learning Disabilities and Autism) for West Yorkshire adult male prisons within His Majesty's Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) ("Service") with reference number NHSE939.

The contract for the Service with the incumbent provider was due to expire on 31st March 2025. The Service is essential for patient safety and therefore the relevant authority has decided that an urgent modification is required to extend the current contract for the Service.

The modification extends the current contract by 12 months, for the period 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026, and increases the overall contract value by £15,502,193. The modification also changes the identity of the provider from Care UK Clinical Services Limited (Co Regn No 03462881) to Practice Plus Group Health and Rehabilitation Services Limited (Co Regn No 10498997) to accurately reflect the identity of the provider following a group reorganisation and rebranding. In the view of the relevant authority, the modification was urgent.
