Regulation 72.- (1) Contracts and framework agreements may be modified without a new procurement procedure in accordance with this Part: - (c) where all of the following conditions are fulfilled: - (i) the need for modification has been brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority could not have foreseen. In response to (i): NHSE did not foresee that the service provider in Scarborough would give notice to terminate the existing contract thereby leaving a gap in service for patients, this placed patients at risk of not being able to access urgent care and there being insufficient time to complete a procurement process for a new practice. (ii) the modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract. In response (ii): This variation does not alter the overall nature of the original contract, which is based on UDAs at contractually set tariffs per UDA. The contract variation is for units of dental activity which is of the same nature as that of the core contract. (iii) any increase in price does not exceed 50% of the value of the original contract or framework agreement. In response (iii): There was no increase in contract value of the variation to that of the initial contract. Therefore, this contract value (PS444,044) does not exceed 50% of the original contract agreement. The risk to not taking this approach would have meant an immediate gap in primary care dental provision in the Scarborough area, thus impacting on access for patients and consequently, patient care. A full procurement is planned to deliver a new contract commencing 01 July 2022. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/022186-2021 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Limited | | Procurement method details | Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 7 Sep 2021 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 30 Jun 2021 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £444,044 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Cancelled | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS ENGLAND AND NHS IMPROVEMENT - NORTH EAST AND YORKSHIRE REGION | | Locality | YORK, NORTH YORKSHIRE | | Post town | York | | Postcode | YO32 9NW | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE2 North Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE21 York | | Local authority | York | | Electoral ward | Huntington & New Earswick | | Westminster constituency | York Outer | | Delivery location | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | FALSGRAVE DENTAL SURGERY | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services - 85130000 - Dental practice and related services ## Release History - 7 Sep 2021 at 15:46 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/022186-2021 ## Notice URLs - https://www.england.nhs.uk/north-east-yorkshire/contact-us/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
