The procurement process is at the Award stage, with the modified contract period running from November 1, 2017, to September 30, 2018. The original contract was signed on December 4, 2014, and the modification has become necessary due to unforeseen circumstances affecting the delivery of related contracts. This initiative is aimed at supporting music and related services in the Inverness area, primarily servicing regions in the UKM and UKM6 classifications. This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for companies specialising in creative services, particularly music event management, production, and related consultancy services. Businesses with a demonstrated track record in managing similar projects or events, and those equipped with a capable workforce and resources, would be well-positioned to compete for this contract. The existing contract extension could lead to additional work for firms experienced in collaborating with public authorities and delivering quality services under time-sensitive conditions. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The original contract was one of five contracts which were set up to contribute to the delivery of XPONorth. Each of the four contracts had an optional 1 year extension clause built into it. Four of the contracts are not being renewed for reasons a diligent contracting authority could not have foreseen and reasons outwith our control. In order to ensure XPONorth 2018 can proceed we are in a position where we have to modify one of the contracts originally awarded to deliver some elements of the four contracts which are not being extended to ensure the successful deliver of the event in 2018. HIE has modified this contract in compliance with Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 Reg 72(1)(b) and (c): A contract and framework agreement may be modified without a new procurement procedure -- b) to provide for additional works, supplies or services by the original contractor that have become necessary and were not included in the initial procurement, where a change of contractor-- (i) cannot be made for economic or technical reasons such as requirements of interchangeability or interoperability with existing equipment, services or installations procured under the initial procurement; and (ii) would cause significant inconvenience or substantial duplication of costs for the contracting authority, provided that any increase in price does not exceed 50% of the initial contract value; (C) A contract and framework agreement may be modified without a new procurement procedure -- where all of the following conditions are fulfilled-- (i) the need for modification has been brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority could not have foreseen; (ii) the modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract or framework; (iii) any increase in price does not exceed 50 % of the initial contract value or framework agreement; The value stated in VII.1.6 is the new total value for this contract including the extension period until 30 September 2018. The start date in VII.1.5 is the start date of the extension period (contract originally started in 2014). ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV300874 | | Notice type | OJEU - F20 - Modification Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 9 Nov 2017 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 4 Dec 2014 | | Contract period | 1 Nov 2017 - 30 Sep 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Not specified | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | HIGHLANDS AND ISLANDS ENTERPRISE | | Locality | INVERNESS | | Post town | Inverness | | Postcode | IV2 5NA | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM2 Highlands and Islands | | ITL 3 | TLM20 Highlands and Islands | | Local authority | Highland | | Electoral ward | Inverness South | | Westminster constituency | Inverness, Skye and West Ross-shire | | Delivery location | TLM Scotland, TLM6 Highlands and Islands | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 92 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ### Codes - 92000000 - Recreational, cultural and sporting services ## Release History - 9 Nov 2017 at 00:00 - AwardUpdate - OJEU - F20 - Modification Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV300874 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV300874 Creative Industries Trade Networks - Music ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://www.hie.co.uk - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000518093 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
