- Change The scale and impact of COVID was unforeseen and redirected procurement resources away to priority PPE areas. Given some of the technical requirements and specialist furniture items required by PSNI, interim quotations are not possible nor proportionate as substantive testing is required and all items must pass through Quality Assurance and be assessed by Occupational Health & Welfare on ergonomics, strength, stability and BS5459 standard. In addition any appointed contractor must have CTC Police level 2 vetting. PSNI are currently undertaking a complete review of their requirements to clearly scope out what they need to ensure a fair and transparent competition going forward., Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: The modification falls under the provisions set out in Regulation 72(1)(b) for additional works, services or supplies that “have become necessary” and were not included in the initial procurement and a change of supplier would not be practicable (for economic, technical or interoperability reasons) and would involve substantial inconvenience/duplication of costs
