This procurement takes place within in the context of the ongoing Local Government Reorganisation (LGR), which may result in changes to council structures and service delivery responsibilities during the contract term.

The estimated contract value stated in this notice includes potential future requirements which may arise because of LGR.

This includes indicative increases in service scope or volume over the live of the contract.

These elements are included for planning purposes and flexibility within the contract and do not represent committed spend.

Full details are provided in the tender documents, specifically in Section 1.2 of the ITT, Section 2 of the Specification and the Pricing Schedule.

This approach is intended to ensure the contract remains scalable and fit for purpose throughout its duration.

The core contract value, estimated at £922,298.18, based on known current service requirements.

Due to potential future changes in service scope or volume linked to LGR the Council anticipates a potential increase to the overall contract value by £415,000- £600,000.

The total contract value if the LGR takes place will be approximately £1,337,574 - £1,522,574.
