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):

In accordance with Regulation 72(1)(b) of the PCR 2015, the Authority intend to place a Contractual Amendment, to uplift the Contract value, up to 50% of the original Contract value. This will increase the value of the Contract by £510,000.00 ex-VAT, resulting in a new Contract value of £1,662,000.00 ex-VAT. Due to the continued constraints on recruitment, work force substitute and external assistance spend – the authority has sought additional required support from an existing contractual agreement to ensure a comprehensive FDSS Approval can be met. By increasing the Contract value, will allow the Authority to maintain the intended critical project delivery schedule and deliver further key output based deliverables within the original scope. The additional deliverables will aid and support critical decision points within the programme, such as internal approvals. The Contract Amendment will be carried out utilising the Variation Form under the MCF3 Terms and Conditions.
