The Councils have previously varied the Contract as per notice numbers 109745-2020, 560746-2020 and 609089-2020. The Contract permits the Councils to enter into an extension for a total period of up to 5 years from the end of the Initial Term. The Councils (with the exception of Somerset Council who will exit the Contract entirely upon expiry of the initial term on 1 October 2025), have elected to utilise the extension provision within the Contract to extend the services for Revenues & Benefits and Local Land Charges only for a period of up to 3 years from the expiry of the initial term, which may be up to October 2028 with the option to extend for an additional 2 years. South Oxfordshire District Council and Vale of White Horse District Council also wish to utilise the extension within the Contract to extend the out of hours service for Customer Services for 3 years with the option to extend for an additional 2 years.",

The reduction in the I-Hub and Human Resources (Advisory) Services resulted in a reduction in Contract value of approximately PS700,242 per year for the remainder of the Contract term. The reduction in the Licensing Services resulted in a reduction in contract value of approximately PS377,000 per year for the remainder of the Contract term. The reduction in the Human Resources Operational and Payroll Services resulted in a reduction of approximately PS1,012,086 per year for the remainder of the Contract term. The reduction in the Finance Services resulted in a reduction in Contract value of approximately PS634,000 per year for the remainder of the Contract term. The reduction in the Exchequer Services resulted in a reduction in Contract value of approximately PS1,630,000 per year for the remainder of the Contract term. The reduction in the Procurement function resulted in the Contract value being reduced by approximately PS2,376,000 for the remainder of the Contract term. The reduction in the IT function resulted in the Contract value being reduced by approximately PS441,000 for the remainder of the Contract term. Further reductions include: A reduction to front of house (Customer Services) for South & Vale and Hart, resulted in the Contract value being reduced by an approximate PS1,515,385 for the remainder of the Contract term. A reduction to Customer Services by Mendip (now Somerset) resulted in the Contract value being reduced by an approximate PS1,090,000 for the remainder of the Contract term. A reduction to IT Services by Mendip resulted in the Contract value being reduced by an approximate PS321,954, per year for the remainder of the Contract term. A reduction to IT Services by Hart resulted in the Contract value being reduced by an approximate PS249,659, for the remainder of the Contract term. This notice is concerned with invoking the extension option within the Contract to extend its term for the Revenues & Benefits and Local Land Charges services only for all Councils (except Somerset Council) for a period of up to 3 years with an option to extend for a further period of 2 years. This notice is also concerned with invoking the extension option within the Contract to extend its term for out of hours Customer Services for South and Vale District Council and Vale of White Horse Councils for 3 years with an option to extend for a further period of 2 years. Taking into account the value and scale of the original Contract the Councils consider that the extension to the Contract for up to 3 years is not substantial for the purposes of Regulation 72(1)(e) of the PCR given that the original Contract provided for an extension period beyond the initial 9 year term by up to a further 5 years. The 3 year extension has a total estimated value of PS24,736,269 in the context of the original PS140,262,000 Contract. In addition, the scope of the originally awarded Contract has significantly reduced, and the economic balance of the Contract is moving away from the contractor by the reduction of the service opportunity despite the extension this notice is concerned with. The Councils consider that extending the Contract in the manner proposed is for operational and commercial reasons to achieve a smooth transition. The extension of these Services will ensure the smooth ongoing delivery of public services on a value for money basis."
