### Procurement Information

Negotiated without a prior call for competition. Additional services from the original supplier in strict accordance with Regulation 72(1)(e) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The need to extend the Contract arises from the fact that the information now required by the market is more extensive than was previously the case and the Councils have experienced delays in gathering the information. Having taken advice, the Councils are satisfied that inviting tenders based on the information that is available would not achieve best value and involve both the Councils and prospective suppliers in considerable additional work. During the extension, the Councils will collect the information with a view to undertaking a legally compliant procurement resulting in the award of a new contract to take effect from 1 April 2026.
