The procurement process has reached the modification stage of the award, with the original contract being extended for a six-month period from 1st April 2024 to 30th September 2024 to ensure service continuity during the pre-election standstill period. The contract modification, dated 30th August 2024, was approved by the Finance and Performance Committee on 6th August 2024. The services will be delivered in regions UKG23 and UKG24, covering localities such as Stafford, and are valued at approximately GBP 2,436,878.34.
