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 contract requirements remain unchanged, the same services will continue to be delivered by the supplier for a further 12 months.
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:
The council is currently in the process of undertaking major projects to update critical financial infrastructure systems. These major projects are at a critical stage and system integrity and stability is imperative, as such no conflicting major change projects can be undertaken at this time due to the risk posed to the successful completion of the implementation and migration to the new infrastructure system. A change of banking provider has been identified as a conflicting change project and would present a significant risk due to the integration works required. Additionally to change banking provider at this stage the council would incur costs which are anticipated would be duplicated once the new system infrastructure becomes operational.
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: £127,571.34
Total contract value after the modifications
