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 Housing Executive intends to modify this contract in line with regulation 72(1)(b) of the Public Contract Regulations 2015, to increase the spend on the contract. This represents an increase of up to £998,829.30 (approximately 50% of the value of the original contract). There no guarantee of any level of
spend on the contract.
This is intended to give time for additional work to be carried out by the same Contractor during the Contract period.
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:
NIHE is currently developing a 5-year programme focused on the delivery of External Maintenance Works and is holding a market engagement event in January 2026.
A significant investment of time and resources, for all parties, is required when procuring these contracts. It is not in the interest of the public purse to procure another round of short-term contracts. Doing so would result in significant inconvenience, and substantial duplication of costs would be incurred in issuing another short-term tender
The modification could enable us to develop a new strategy for ECM works and this will result in a new competition going to the market in early 2026.
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: £1,997,658.60
Total contract value after the modifications
Value excluding VAT: £2,996,487.90
