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 value of the contract has been uplifted to £909,476

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:

Regulation 72(1)(b) Additional works, services or supplies “have become necessary” and

were not included in the initial procurement and a change of supplier would not be

practicable (for economic, technical or interoperability reasons) and would involve

substantial inconvenience/duplication of costs - provided the change does not exceed 50%

of the value of the original contract.

This is on the basis that, as set out by LPS, there are a number of economic and technical

reasons which mean that a change of contractor at this point would result in significant

inconvenience and duplication of costs including but not limited to, costs associated with running

a new procurement process and the costs associated with brining another contractor up to

speed on the work already undertaken by the current contractor. There is the need for continuity with financial advisory support (e.g. finalisation of Land Registry delivery partner project, R&B implementation). This extension will allow contingency for financial advisory support for these and the remaining NOVA programme procurements (Valuation) to be completed.

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: £670,000
