This is being justified due to the fact that the service must be in place by the 23rd July 2021 to enable wider configuration of systems over the summer period that will enable continuity of education from September 2021. Given the COVID-19 situation the main telecommunication providers have given notice that there may well be disruption to their normal implementation timeframes and thus orders need to be placed as soon as possible. The Trust therefore need to de-risk this situation and be in a position to place orders as soon as possible and therefore the justifiable reason to utilise accelerated timescales."
