                    "description": "Nature and extent of the modifications (with indication of possible earlier changes to the contract): Due to the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and complexities surrounding the changing landscape, both nationally and locally, the process of reviewing, consulting on and agreeing the commissioning strategy and re-procurement of the St Mary's Treatment Centre, Portsmouth has been delayed: * Management of the Covid-19 response has necessarily been the focus of the contracting authority, the incumbent provider and key partners and stakeholders since March 2020. * Resources in the contracting authority were redirected to support frontline activities including direct care for patients, efforts to support supply chain activities and vaccination programmes in line with national guidance around removing routine burdens and freeing up as much capacity as possible to focus on the pandemic response. * Resources in the wider system, including Acute and Community NHS Trusts and providers, Primary Care, Community and Tier 2 Providers and Clinicians, and other partners/ stakeholders, all of whom would have been engaged in the review and re-tendering exercise, were redirected to support frontline activities and the pandemic response. * As part of the Covid-19 response, NHS E&I secured all available independent sector capacity including the Elective element of the Portsmouth Treatment Centre (currently run by Practice Plus Group). The national contract commenced on 23 March 2020 and was extended several times under different terms and conditions, finally expiring on 31 March 2021. During this period, the ICB (formally CCG) elective element of the contract with Practice Plus Group was suspended and, as the ICB (formally CCG) was not the contract holder, limiting its ability to undertake key activity. * The ability to undertake meaningful engagement and consultation as part of any review process has been limited by the pandemic, for example as national 'lockdowns' would preclude the convening of patient and public groups. * This modification is required to ensure essential service delivery can be maintained, with no detrimental impact on patient care given the above unforeseeable circumstances. Accordingly, under Reg 72(1)(c) Public Contract Regulation 2015 this Modification Notice is being published as notification of the decision by Hampshire and IOW ICB to extend the existing contract for St Mary's Treatment Centre with Practice Plus Group for 12 months to 31st March 2024 with an additional option to extend for up to 6-months should it be required (18-months in total) outside of the terms originally procured. This modification is required under Reg 72(1)(c) Public Contract Regulation 2015, due to circumstances which a diligent Contracting Authority could not have foreseen. The modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract and any increase in price does not exceed 50% of the value of the original contract. This time is considered necessary and proportional to alleviate the risk stated in this notice and will give the above-named Contracting Authority sufficient time to review the service to inform any future commissioning strategies and models.",
                    "rationale": "Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: The Covid pandemic resulted in emergency measures which have delayed the process of reviewing, consulting on and agreeing the commissioning strategy and re-procurement of the St Mary's Treatment Centre, Portsmouth contract. Originally, the contracting authority started their plans to undertake a thorough service review of the scope of services and service model in 2019/20, this process was halted in February 2020 due to the Covid Pandemic. The Covid pandemic and related unforeseen circumstances have resulted in significant delays to the scheduled service review and subsequent re-tendering activity, for example as: * Management of the Covid-19 response, both in terms of immediate measures and the subsequent recovery of diagnostic and elective activity (in between Covid waves), has necessarily been the focus of the contracting authority, the incumbent provider and key partners and stakeholders since March 2020. * Resources in the contracting authority were redirected to support frontline activities including direct care for patients, efforts to support supply chain activities and vaccination programmes in line with national guidance around removing routine burdens and freeing up as much capacity as possible to focus on the pandemic response. * Resources in the wider system, including Acute and Community NHS Trusts and providers, Primary Care, Community and Tier 2 Providers and Clinicians, and other partners/ stakeholders, all of whom would have been engaged in the review and re-tendering exercise, were redirected to support frontline activities and the pandemic response. * As part of the Covid-19 response, NHS E&I secured all available independent sector elective capacity including St Mary's Treatment Centre, Portsmouth (currently run by Practice Plus Group). The national contract commenced on 23 March 2020 and was extended several times under different terms and conditions, finally expiring on 31 March 2021. During this period, the ICB's (formally CCG) contract with Practice Plus Group Portsmouth was suspended and, as the ICB (formally CCG) was not the contract holder, limiting its ability to undertake key activity. * The ability to undertake meaningful engagement and consultation as part of any review process has been limited by the pandemic, for example as national 'lockdowns' precluded the convening of patient and public groups. The pandemic and related emergency measures, including the national contract, has also meant that: * Data (e.g., activity and demand), which is essential to inform future commissioning strategies and models, is now out of date. The last 'steady state' data available is from 2019/20, prior to the pandemic. * Data gathered during the pandemic is not relevant or comparable, as the ICB's (formally CCG) contract with Practice Plus Group was suspended during this time, and the incumbent provider's capacity redirected to activity to support the Acute NHS Trust. * Ways of working, patient behaviours and care pathways have all changed because of the pandemic. As noted in national guidance, it is vital that future work takes account of lessons learned during Covid, by locking in beneficial change and addressing both opportunities and weaknesses highlighted since March 2020. * As such, the 2019/20 baseline cannot be viewed as a reliable source for modelling future requirements. Given the pandemic is still ongoing, as is the analysis of lessons learned from Covid, and this will be essential to developing robust and future proof service models which meet the needs of our population. At the same time, the restructure of the NHS including the merging of CCGs has gone ahead despite the disruption caused by the pandemic. As such, the health and care landscape is changing significantly. The Hampshire and IOW ICB has been formed, bringing opportunities to consider demand and capacity modelling, speciality reviews and innovative models of care across a wider geography across the Integrated Care System. The Contracting Authority considers the above issues have resulted in a set of circumstances which a diligent Contracting Authority could not have foreseen. Accordingly, Hampshire and IOW ICB has decided there is a requirement to extend the existing contract for St Mary's Treatment Centre, Portsmouth with Practice Plus Group for 12 months to 31st March 2024 with an additional option to extend for up to 6-months should it be required (18-months in total) outside of the terms originally procured under Reg 72(1)(c) Public Contract Regulation 2015. The modification will enable a review to be undertaken in order to inform decisions about the type and scope of service required to meet future needs, based on robust data gathering, patient, clinical and stakeholder engagement, and lessons learned from the pandemic and the NHS restructure. The modification will also enable a robust, review to be undertaken, and an adequate mobilisation period to minimise any risk of service discontinuity or negative impacts on patients or the wider system. The modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract and any increase in price does not exceed 50% of the value of the original contract."
