This additional work has resulted in additional throughput via the contract and the total contract spend limit being achieved at a quicker rate. In order to protect service continuity for high priority work, to mitigate the risks associated with the financial instability of the key supplier and to run a procurement to replace this contract an uplift is required. The new procurement activities to replace this contract will be available as opportunities via the Crown Commercial Service Digital Outcomes and Specialists 6 Framework. The procurement activities resulting from this requirement will be valued at around PS19m and will be split by 3 procurements staggered between April and May 2023."
