Justifications for contract modification
- Additional goods, services or works
Reason that these justifications apply
This modification is made under the legal ground provided in the Procurement Act 2023, Schedule 8, paragraph 8 ("Additional goods, services or works").
The justification for using this ground is that the modification provides for the supply of works in addition to those already provided for in the contract. Using a different supplier for these highly integrated works would result in the supply of works that are incompatible with the ongoing refit, leading to disproportionate technical difficulties in operation or maintenance and a substantial duplication of costs for the authority. This modification increases the original contract value, but remains within the 50% cap permitted under this ground.
