Legal Justification

To allow TNI to complete critical work that has become necessary through recovery following the pandemic, it is permissible to rely on regulation 71(1)(b) as the required work was not included in the initial procurement documents and a change of supplier would not be practical practicable (for economic, technical or interoperability reasons) and would involve substantial inconvenience/duplication of costs. This is not a modification for any additional time, but for additional services at £275,725 required within the contract term.
