Decision:

The Director of Adults and Health approved the waiver of CPRs 9.1 (requirement of competition) and 9.2 (invitation of a minimum of four written tenders), using the authority set out in CPR 1.3, to award a 6-month contract with the option to extend for a further 6-months to MHA for extra care services at Yew Tree Court and Rosewood Court. This contract is to commence 1st April 2019. A request to utilise the available 6-month extension will be subject to a separate decision.

The Director of Adults and Health approved an increase to the contract value resulting in a contract value of £228,208 for the 6-month period. This represents an increase of £22,500 (10.9%) for the 6-month period.

The Director of Adults and Health approved the continued use of the negotiated procedure without prior publication of a notice under Regulation 32 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 with the goal of establishing a long-term contract with the existing provider. The outcome of these negotiations and the recommendation to award a long-term contract will be subject to a separate significant operational decision.
