Procurement Information
The Framework Agreement set out in OJEU Contract Notice was entered into by EANI as per the published Contract Award Notice (Framework Agreement). The Framework Agreement was initially for a term ending 31 August 2019, with the option to extend for one further period of 12 months followed by a further optional extension period of up to 24 months. It was however agreed in June 2019 that the Framework Agreement be extended until 31 August 2020, further agreed in June 2020 that the Framework Agreement be extended until 31 August 2021 and then further agreed in June 2021 that it be further extended until 31 August 2022 (Expiry). EANI intended to commence a new procurement exercise in January 2022. However, the new procurement exercise has been delayed due to Covid-19. Particularly, EANI has experienced a significant reduction in staffing resources at extremely short notice and has therefore been unable to begin the tender process. Given the uncertainty surrounding Covid-19, it is unclear when EANI will be able to commence the new procurement. EANI anticipates the new contract commencement will be 1 January 2023, with services extended under the current Framework Agreement until then. However, due to Covid-19, contract commencement may be further delayed, with EANI having the option to further extend the Framework Agreement, in its absolute discretion, until 30 April 2023. Further additional services until the commencement of the new framework agreement, which were not included in the original procurement, have become necessary and are permitted by Regulation 72(1)(c) of The Public Contacts Regulations 2015. Namely, the following conditions have been fulfilled: (i) The need for modification has been brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority could not have foreseen. Namely, the Covid-19 pandemic. Covid-19 has delayed the new procurement exercise commencing, with such circumstances, and the ensuing delay, entirely unforeseeable by EANI. It is also unknown and unforeseeable when the Covid-19 pandemic will conclude or abate sufficiently to allow the process to start. Accordingly, an extension is required in order to allow a procurement exercise to be carried out and to ensure continuity of service until the new framework agreement commences; (ii) The modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract. Other than the term of the Framework Agreement being extended to allow the new procurement to be concluded, the nature of the Framework Agreement is not being amended; and (iii) The modification does not amend the value of the original Framework Agreement.
