Indicators

• Contract modified due to unforeseen circumstances.

Legal Justification

The modification is required due to a level of demand that could not reasonably have been foreseen at the time of the original procurement. The contracting authority was unable to accurately forecast the pipeline of potential work, and the volume of requirements has exceeded initial estimates. These additional needs fall within the scope of the original contract but require an uplift in value to ensure continuity of service delivery. As this increased demand was not predictable during the tender process, the modification is necessary to maintain service provision without interruption and without causing disproportionate cost or operational impact.

Other Information

LHC Procurement Group Limited is a not for profit central purchasing body acting on behalf of contracting authorities throughout Scotland, England and Wales (including partners of the Scottish Procurement Alliance, Welsh Procurement Alliance and South West Procurement Alliance) for whom we continue to monitor up to 500 live projects at any one time. Thanks to their ongoing and collective feedback and input into the development of this framework and given the reach and scale of their collective portfolios, the framework is both designed and anticipated to support the vast majority of requirements. Consequently, other contracting authorities that were not specifically consulted in the development of this framework may nevertheless also deem the framework to offer a value for money procurement solution for their own requirements and may also use the framework. As of the date of publication of this notice our frameworks may be used by all contracting authorities in Scotland as defined by the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 and as listed on: https:// www.scottishprocurement.scot/who-we-work-with/ including, but not limited to Registered social landlords (RSL's), tenant management organisations (TMOs) and arm’s length management organisations (ALMOs), local authorities and any subsidiaries and joint-venture vehicles of those local authorities, health authorities, councils, boards and trusts, publicly funded schools, universities and further education establishments, colleges, police forces, fire and rescue services or registered charities. SPA partners may add community benefit requirements in their call-off contracts from this Framework including but not limited to: - to generate employment and training opportunities for priority groups; - vocational training; - to up-skill the existing workforce; - equality and diversity initiatives; - to make sub-contracting opportunities available to SMEs, the third sector and supported businesses; - supply-chain development activity; - to build capacity in community organisations; - educational support initiatives (SC Ref:815868)
