Legal Justification

The Regulations permit the modification of a contract where the changes proposed meet one or more of the prescribed tests as set out in Regulation 72. Having considered the information provided there would appear to be convincing reasons to modify this contract in accordance with Regulation 72(1)(b) Additional works, services or supplies “have become necessary” and were not included in the initial procurement and a change of supplier would not be practicable (for economic, technical or interoperability reasons) and would involve substantial inconvenience/duplication of costs - provided the change does not exceed 50% of the value of the original contract.

Other Information

This modification is to allow for an uplift in the overall contract value of LOT 1 only of this contract. This will increase the headroom to cover immediate requirements. It will also increase headroom to cover further requirements within the final 3 year extension period that will be issued and agreed separately.
