Extending the contract represents a cost effective approach to deliver the return on this investment. Replacing the current system would likely lead to a duplication of implementation costs not associated with an extension of the existing contract. Therefore the most viable, least disruptive and best value option is to extend the current contract in accordance with the existing contract conditions for a period of 48 months and review the procurement options prior to the end of that period."
