For continuity and consistency there is a need for national alignment of the expiry date for all M&R contracts, to enable co-ordinated re-procurement. This means that the term of this Area 4 M&R Contract will be shortened and will have a new end date of 5th June 2028 instead of 2nd November 2028. The amended Contract estimated value is £238,500,000.
