- Change The modification increases the lifetime value of the contract by £1,520,413.80. No change is being made to the scope of services. The modification will take effect from 1st September 2026. The contract term of 12 months will remain unchanged. This notice has been published on behalf of the NHS Surrey and Sussex Integrated Care Board. — Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: The appointment of an alternative provider would have resulted in a risk of disruption to patient care. The modification therefore represented the most efficient and proportionate means of meeting the urgent service requirement whilst maintaining service continuity, patient safety, and value for money, whilst a process is undertaken for the longer term contract.
