- Additional Repeat Extension Partial Replacement
- Published justification
The contract concerns the supply of an interim Enforcement Team Leader by the existing supplier which are intended as an extension to existing services in circumstances where-
a) a change in supplier would result in the contracting authority receiving services that are different from, or incompatible with, the existing services and
b) the difference or incompatibility would result in disproportionate technical difficulties in operation or maintenance.
Despite a number of recruitment campaigns, the council has been unable to appoint to the vacant Enforcement Team Leader position. In order to sustain the delivery of the service, provide continuity of staff, minimise technical difficulties and inconvenience, and avoid duplication of costs, it is necessary to retain the services of the interim Enforcement Team Leader.
