Changes
Other additional information
As a result of a requirement for additional equipment to support Further Education and Training across ETBs the value of the agreement estimated when advertising the tender has increased significantly and the Contracting Authority request approval to increase the estimated value of the agreement by 50% to allow schools and centres drawdown on the arrangement for the next academic year and to allow the Contracting Authority sufficient time to return to the market. To ensure continuity of supply we are relying on Article 72 of the Public Sector Directive. This permits modifications to contracts and frameworks during their term. LMETB has applied Article 72(c) of Directive 2014/24/EU.

Main reason for change: Need for modifications because of circumstances which a diligent buyer could not predict.
