What is being bought

Published requirement description

Integrated Community Equipment Services (ICES).

Commissioners wish to re-design a new service in line with the new Kent health and social care strategic direction. The new service will address rising costs of materials, logistics etc. Time is needed to do this. Commissioners have therefore extended the current contract, under Regulation 72 1 (e) of the the Public Contract Regulation. The current service will not change in scope and/or price. The contract will be extended to 31 March 2024. The new designed service will be in place by 1 April 2024. In the meantime, commissioners will work with the market and experts by experience to redesign the service before undergoing a transparent competitive tender process.

Why no open competition: The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the directive
Published justification: The contract extension / modification to the contract is not substantial and therefore comes within the scope of Regulation 72 a (e). :
a. It does not render the contract materially different - on the contrary, it merely extends it on the same terms for a defined period.
b. There is no significant increase in price for the period of the extension. The provider will deliver the same service for the same price.
