There is no change to the total contract value, no change to the Echo 2 requirement and no change to the contract term brought about by this modification. The need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee. The modification does not alter the overall nature of the call-off contract The modification does not increase the value of the original call-off contract.",
"rationale": "Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: The Authority's ECHO2 programme was impacted by various external factors beyond its control including hardware failures and chip shortages as a result of the COVID global production delays, resourcing and solution complexity due to network estate considerations which led to a delay in the design, build and test phase. These external factors resulted in a delay to completion of the originally planned ECHO2 programme and necessitated that an extension to the implementation phase be exercised to successfully complete the programme. The modification does not alter the overall nature of the call-off contract nor does it increase the value of the original call-off contract."
