Additional details

This is an existing service that has been in place since 2019 The CCG has assessed that the service needs to continue whilst a review is completed and new commissioning plans are developed by the newly formed North West London CCG from April 2021.

The existing contract is being modified through contract variation to extend its term by 6 months. The existing value of the contract of £50,000 will increase by £12,500 during this additional term.

This modification is necessary to ensure continuity of these services for local patients.
The CCG has considered its obligations under the NHS (Procurement Patient Choice and Competition) (No.2) Regulations 2013 and assesses that the incumbent provider offers the safest solution to ensure this continuity at this time, particularly having regard to the priorities and resource pressures associated with the local NHS response to COVID-19.

The CCG has assessed this modification to be reasonable and proportionate.
