Retail and Station Enhancements (RSE) Welcome Points Project

Location

Description

This is a Direct Award for consultancy services that have been embedded in the project from its outset. The value of the spend has gone above the public contracts threshold and therefore has become a convertible contract under PA23. As Rail Settlement Plan Limited is a utility with no requirement to publish procurement notices for below threshold procurement awards, which this award originally started as, there is no original procurement notice to link this award to and comply with the convertible contract concept. Therefore, we are publishing Transparency and Contract Award notices to demonstrate that we are being fair and transparent to the market.

Legal Justification

The direct award to Cadence Innova complying with the convertible contract concept, concerns the supply of services by the existing supplier which are intended as an extension to services based on the circumstances where a change in supplier would result in the contracting authority receiving services that are different from, and incompatible with, the existing services, and the difference or incompatibility would result in disproportionate technical difficulties in operation or maintenance. The consultancy services have been embedded in the delivery of the project from its outset and the project is entering its final stages and a change to supplier at this stage would have significant negative impact on a highly political and sensitive project.
