Legal Justification

The purpose of this VEAT notice is to inform and provide prior notice to the market that the Authority intends to modify its Framework Agreement (FAE-20-028) for the Supply and Delivery of Interactive Touch Panels. Following publication of this VEAT Notice, the Authority will observe a 10 day standstill which will conclude at midnight on Monday 11th July 2022. This opportunity / Framework Agreement was originally advertised in a Contract Notice (2021/S 000-008860). A Contract Award Notice (2021/S 000-014804) was also subsequently published. The requirement has arisen to modify the value of this Framework Agreement due to an unforeseen increase in demand for Interactive Touch Panels. This will provide short term contractual coverage whilst the Authority carries out a re-procurement exercise. The Authority intends to run a re-procurement exercise in order to replace this current Framework Agreement. It is anticipated that a replacement will commence in July 2023. The modification to the value of this Framework Agreement provides an interim solution to ensure contractual coverage for schools until the new Framework Agreement commences. This is the first modification to this Framework Agreement. It is estimated that the total value of this modification shall be less than 50% of the original contract value. The original contract value was stated as £8,500,000 and the proposed modification will increase the total contract value to £12,750,000. The modification is proposed in accordance with Regulation 72 (1) (c) and will comply with each of the following conditions pertaining to this regulation as outlined below: (i) the need for modification has been brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority could not have foreseen i.e. increase in demand in part influenced by the availability of funding which could not be foreseen at the time of advertising the original contract. (ii) the modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract (services provided will remain the same); (iii) the value of the modification does not exceed 50% of the value of the original contract (value of proposed modification is 50% of the original contact value).
