Explanation:
Modification of the Contract has been made in accordance with Regulation 72(1)(c) of The Public Contracts Regulations (PCR) 2015.
The original contract notice was for 2 years + 2 x 12 months extensions (01/03/2019-01/03/23) and the estimated value was £8m based on £2m per annum
To date since the contract commenced CITB have only spent £4.5m. There was a significant underspend during the pandemic.
