The Contracting Authority considers that extending the 2020 Contract in the manner proposed is for operational and commercial reasons to achieve continuity of service. The continuity of services from the current Contractor seeks to ensure the ongoing delivery of the services on a value for money basis. Note though this is only short- term and the Contracting Authority will be commencing a fresh public procurement process (RWM176 - Technical Toolkits: Support, Maintenance and Development Framework) by end August 2021."

The character of the 2020 Contract and the Services to be delivered by the Contractor remains the same; the services required by the Contracting Authority are continuity of support, maintenance and limited development. This is important as the tool may be in need of bug fixes and enhancement which arise during the scientific population activity; there is to be no extension in the scope of the 2020 Contract; there is to be no change to the economic balance of the 2020 Contract in favour of the Contractor; and there is to be no replacement of the Contractor to whom the Contracting Authority had initially awarded the Contract. Under this extension no significant new work will be placed which may give the incumbent a material advantage in any subsequent competition. The Contracting Authority will be commencing a fresh public procurement process (RWM176 - Technical Toolkits: Support, Maintenance and Development Framework) by end of August 2021. The Contracting Authority proposes to extend the 2020 Contract for up to eight months only to provide continuity of support, maintenance and limited development.",
