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):

Additional work packages (Statements of work) associated with the Strategic Trace Solution and associated software licences and support services.

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:

Changes in scope which are integral to the initial contract requirement, and which fall within 50% of the original contract value. IBM is providing the overall Trace solution that has been launched and is already deeply integrated and embedded within systems. Due to the critical nature of the Trace programme, it would not be feasible for another supplier to provide these additional roles and adding another contractor to the mix would leave the solution open to disruption. IBM’s personnel have the required expertise as to the solution and as IBM is a re-seller of Salesforce licences under the contract.

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: £25,000,000

Total contract value after the modifications
