                    "description": "Nature and extent of the modifications (with indication of possible earlier changes to the contract): During the management of this contact it has been necessary to administer a number of variations associated with design, planning, contamination and ordnance management. Given the complex stakeholder arrangements, the programme for the agreement and approvals of the developed design was prolonged. Significant statutory consultation was also required in completing the reserved matters planning application. Areas of unforeseen contamination on the site had to be addressed in a controlled manner to render the site fit for use which included the management of a significant amount of concealed ordnance. These matters required the ICT to carry out additional investigations and supervision of all the necessary works and over a longer period than originally anticipated. Variations to the contact have also been necessary for extended supervision of the enabling works contract which experienced significant delay due to unforeseen ground conditions. The ICT's supervision role has been modified to encompass the extended duration of these works. The procurement exercise for the Main Works Contract has also experienced unprecedented issues. These resulted in the Contracting Authority suspending the Main Works Contract procurement in February 2018. It then undertook a reappraisal of the business case and procurement strategy, which required Executive and Ministerial consideration prior to implementation. This process was prolonged due to the collapse of the Stormont Executive, and later the impact of Covid-19. The Contracting Authority commenced a new competition in December 2021, to identify a suitable contractor to carry out the construction works. Although assisting the Contracting Authority to procure an IST was part of the ICT's original contract, the need to commence a second fresh IST procurement resulted in the ICT having to provide additional services. The Main Works Contract has now been entered into and the ICT will be required to manage and supervise the works to completion. The scope of ICT services for management of the Main Works Contract is largely as per the ICT's original contract, although some adjustment will be necessary to accommodate the time shift from the initial programme for delivery of the project. All modifications to date are considered to be permitted by reg.72 PCR. All modifications are considered to be permitted by reg.72 PCR and the below modifications are considered to be permitted by reg.72(1)(b): Inflation adjustment to completion PS1,170,840.28 Contingency PS415,000. This notice is therefore also notice of these two modifications as per reg.72(3) None of the modifications to the contract exceeds 50% of the value of the original contract.",
                    "rationale": "Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: As set out above, additional work was required to complete various elements of the contract. As a result a modification to the contract is required to allow for the completion of the contract in line with the original Scope of Service for the procurement. A change of ICT at this crucial stage of project delivery would cause; * significant inconvenience; * substantial duplication of costs; * a difficult, costly and time-consuming process for another economic operator to take on the design work; * loss of project knowledge; * delays for a new ICT to get familiar with the project; * delays to the Main Works Contract; * increased costs of delivery; * impact on political and stakeholder confidence and agreements. * requirement to reappraise financial and budget approvals that have been granted by the Executive. Additional delays are contrary to the public interest. The regeneration of the subject schools has widespread cross-community support. Please refer to VEAT Notice Annex D Part 3."
