National Joint Registry - Data Management, Solutions, Statistical Analysis, Reporting & Associated Services

The contract is expected to initially be delivered for a period of 5 years, at a maximum total budget of up to £16,080,000 including VAT and £13,400,000 GBP excluding VAT. Bids exceeding this limit will be rejected. There is potential to extend the contract for up to two additional years as well as the option to include other aspirational measures (which will be defined in the service specification) meaning the ceiling value has the potential to be higher.
Due to the unknowns in advance of holding the premarket engagement session, it is currently expected that the extension value will be a 2 year pro rata of the core 5 year funding, estimated at £5,360,000 excluding VAT.
This proposed extension value may also include pro rata funding of any additional aspirational measures invoked in the first 5 years of the contract. For example: If an aspirational annual requirement costing £500,000 per year is invoked in year 5, then the extension funding (if the aspirational measure is continued) will be the above figures plus the additional £500,000 per year.
Further to this funding, the final specification will contain a list of aspirational measures which will be expected to be modified into the contract should the need and funding become available. The aspirational intent value, excluding the potential 2 year extension, is unknown at point of drafting this notice, so, an estimated value of £15,000,000 excluding VAT is applied to form the maximum total estimated value AT POINT OF DRAFTING THIS NOTICE. This aspirational intent has the potential to be invoked fully, partially, or not at all, and the Authority cannot guarantee that the successful supplier will be required to do any of the aspirational measures that will be listed in the final specification.
