VII.2) Information about modifications VII.2.1) Description of the modifications
Nature and extent of the modifications(with indication of possible earlier changes to the contract):
This opportunity / Framework Agreement was originally advertised in a Contract Notice (2021/S 000-008860). A Contract Award Notice (2021/S 000-014804) was also subsequently published.
The requirement has arisen to modify the value of this Framework Agreement due to an unforeseen increase in demand for Interactive Touch Panels. This modification will provide short term contractual coverage whilst the Authority carries out a re-procurement exercise.
The Authority intends to run a re-procurement exercise in order to replace this current Framework Agreement. It is anticipated that a replacement will commence in July 2023.
The modification to the value of this Framework Agreement provides an interim solution to ensure contractual coverage for schools until the new Framework Agreement commences.
This is the first modification to this Framework Agreement. It is estimated that the total value of this modification shall be less than 50% of the original contract value. The original contract value was stated as £8,500,000 and this modification will increase the total contract value to £12,750,000.
The modification is proposed in accordance with Regulation 72 (1) (c) and will comply with each of the conditions pertaining to this regulation.

VII.2.2) Reasons for modification
Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not
foresee(Art.43(1)(c) of Directive 2014/23/EU, Art.72(1)(c) of Directive 2014/24/EU, Art.89(1)(c) of Directive 2014/25/EU)
