Options:
Yes
Description of options:
At this stage of our transformation journey Walsall Council is not yet able to specify the specific types of additional services that may be required beyond the initial Transformation Phase 1: Diagnostics, Programme and Business Case Contract "Phase 1 Contract". It is anticipated that the outputs of the initial Transformation Phase 1 Contract may be used to inform the scope and scale of a further Transformation Phase 2: Transformation Delivery Contract "Phase 2 Contract". Subject to satisfactory delivery of Phase 1 Contract and further approval, Walsall Council may enter in to a Phase 2 Contract, with the successful Bidder for the Phase 1 contract. Due to the interdependencies, likely commercial sensitivity and exclusivity associated with the Phase 1 Contract and a Phase 2 Contract, in the event that Walsall Council decides to award a Phase 2 Contract, it is anticipated that the Phase 2 Contract will be awarded in accordance with Public Contract Regulations 2015, Regulation 32 "Use of the negotiated procedure without prior publication", Paras (9), (10) and (11). The specific details of a Phase 2 Contract would be subject to future negotiation, the mutual agreement of Walsall Council and the successful Bidder.
