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):
The work associated with this contract modification relates to necessary extensions of scope to fulfil the overall project requirements that were not originally envisaged as required. These additions include the provision of temporary hoses, additional delivery cost, system flushing and storage costs as well as an additional boiler which replaces and existing unit originally considered fit for purpose. Subsequent load calculations proved that this was not the case.
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 proposal to source this contract directly with this supplier is based on standardization and the benefits gained from such an approach including maintenance, commonality of spares (supply and stockholding), servicing and associated training requirements. Having a consistent approach across the network gives efficiencies in all these areas.
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: £644,973
Total contract value after the modifications
