seven.2) Information about modifications

seven.2.1) Description of the modifications

Nature and extent of the modifications (with indication of possible earlier changes to the contract):

Purpose of notice – the purpose of this follow up notice is to publish the total value of the WHP Contracts (£794,744,679) covering all 6 CPAs as the Contract Award notice only provided the initial contract value (for five years) of the Contract (£397,522,342).

seven.2.2) Reasons for modification

Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire.

Description of the economic or technical reasons and the inconvenience or duplication of cost preventing a change of contractor:

The contract notice published on 3/11/2017 at http://ted.europa.eu/TED/notice/udl?uri=TED:NOTICE:438821-2017:TEXT:EN:HTML reflected the initial contract value of £397,522,342 for the first 5 years of the WHP contract. The contract notice did not take into account:

1. the expansion of WHP by way of the JETS support provision. This expansion was entered into as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic and the modification notice in respect of it was published on 22/10/2020 via OJEU under the CV06 JETS Expansion.

CPA1 - 2020/S 209-511872, CPA 2 - 2020/S 209-511875, CPA3 - 2020/S 209-511878, CPA 4 - 2020/S 209-511871, CPA 5 - 2020/S 209-511874, CPA 6 - 2020/S 209-511876.

2. a 1 year extension of the JETS support provision due to the continuation of the Covid-19 pandemic; and

3. the two year extension of the programme as provided for in the WHP contracts, which results in an estimated total contract value across all 6 contract package areas of £794,744,679.

seven.2.3) Increase in price

Updated total contract value before the modifications (taking into account possible earlier contract modifications, price adaptions and average inflation)

Value excluding VAT: £397,522,342

Total contract value after the modifications

Value excluding VAT: £794,744,679
