Published justification

This VEAT notice is to advise the need for modification to meet the additional demands of the Scottish Health and Social Care sector during the Covid-19 pandemic (and recovery of services) to maintain necessary supply and remove unnecessary disruption from the Authority at this time in line with Regulation 72(1)(b) of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015.

The priorities for NSS, NHS Scotland and likely those suppliers who would wish to be part of a tender process, have changed, As a result it is a necessary step to delay start of new tender process until April 2023 necessitating a 9-month extension to current framework revising expiry to August 2023

Health Board operations have been severely affected by Covid impacts The reopening process and uncertain timescales have affected the

ability to tender along with Health Board resource to be able to support.

Tender process is planned to commence by April 2023
