•Extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable for the contracting authority

The arrangement to be entered is an arrangement that establishes and implements

cooperation between contracting authorities as set out in regulation 12(7)(a) PCR 2015, with

both contracting authorities' objectives being to carry out their duty by ensuring that the

activities (including IT support) are provided in a manner that maximises efficiencies and

improvement of service delivery. Cooperation between them will allow for a larger support

resource with broader technical skills and facilitate the sharing of ideas and developments,

which will go on to improve the service provided.

The proposed arrangement is governed solely by public interest considerations (regulation

12(7)(b)), with standard platforms & tools being shared to enable the full depth of technical

expertise to be exploited, the distribution of knowledge, resources and experiences to be

utilised to deliver service improvements and transformation opportunities across shared

services. This, therefore, provides a better quality of IT provisions for the school, and better

delivery of their duties through being better supported by better IT systems.

The activities in question are not performed by the contracting authorities on the open

market, thereby meeting the test in regulation 12(7)(c).
