"description": "The length of contract will now change from 48 months that was initially projected, to 52 months. The total value remains at PS435000000.",
"rationale": "Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: Although HTE has carried out reasonable endeavours to roll out a renewal framework; due to the delays in engagement with the potential bidders and delays rolling out a renewal framework, a brief modification of the existing framework is to be carried out by extending the existing framework by 4 months. This is to ensure that public bodies are not materially impacted with the delay and a full open procedure tender process can be carried out."
