• Strategic or Policy Changes: Changes in Combined Authority priorities arising from Government policy updates or revised guidance from VisitEngland may result in adjustments to scope, KPIs, or service delivery requirements.
• Cyber Security Incidents: Cyber attacks or security breaches may disrupt website services, compromise data, and require remedial action or contractual variation.
• Internal Organisational or System Changes: Internal restructuring, process amendments, or changes to digital platforms may require modifications to delivery arrangements, integrations, or contractual scope.
