Change in contractor would also cause substantial duplication of costs for the University. The increase does not exceed 50% of the value of the original contract. Additional labour costs directly associated with prolonged need for AV contractor to remain on site due to delay in building delivery. The AV contractor incurred additional labour costs and had to complete cabling and interfacing works which should have been completed within the main build programme. Additional expenditure is directly associated with delay in build phase and delays handing over the spaces in a fit state to enable AV works to complete. AV contractor had to undertake additional cabling and interface works to get over 200 rooms ready for occupancy."
