## Summary

The NHS Digital organisation has awarded a contract for the provision of client side support services to Capgemini UK PLC. The title of the contract is "Reg 72 Extension Client Side Support" within the technical assistance services category. The procurement method used was selective, involving a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period ended on 3rd June 2021, and the contract period spans from 4th June 2021 to 3rd June 2023. The contract value was increased to £14,625,000, reflecting an extension due to higher than expected usage. The contract supports the implementation of new services, suppliers, architectures, and processes in line with the organisation's programmes specification and strategy.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses, especially those providing technical assistance services, to engage with the NHS Digital organisation. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly suited to compete for this contract, as indicated by the suitability criterion. Businesses interested in providing support for the implementation of new services and architectures aligned with the organisation's strategy will find this tender appealing. Capgemini UK PLC was the successful supplier, highlighting the potential for large-scale service providers to win contracts with the NHS Digital.

## Notice

Award Services to support with the implementation of new services, suppliers, architectures and processes in line with Organisations programmes specification and strategy. Variation This increases the value of the contract from PS10,000,000 as originally published on Contracts Finder, to PS14,625,000. This variation is being made in accordance with Regulation 72(1)(b) of the Public Contract Regulations 2015. The services provided under the contract remain the same, but due to this contract being utilised more than expected there is a necessity to extend. The business has realised the advantages of the contract and used this extensively. NHS England have also used this contract more than expected meaning we have run down the value quicker than expected. The cost and time constraints of reprocuring this contract during the merger would mean we would have potential gaps in delivery. We would be using various people's time to evaluate a contract whilst we are unsure of how this contract will look in the future. Waiting until after the merger would allow our next procurement to be suitable across all pre-merger organisations.
