VII.2) Information about modifications
VII.2.1) Description of the modifications
Nature and extent of the modifications (with indication of possible earlier changes to the contract):
This modification is to increase the published contract value of the WGCD (formerly NPS) Rock Salt and Associated Products Framework by 4.78million GBP
Explanation:
The Rock Salt and Associated Products Framework will reach the end of its four year term in July 2025. This modification will ensure that the framework spend remains complaint within the published contract value over the remaining duration of the framework. The modification will ensure continuity of supply of products that are critical to the safe operation of the Welsh road network.
The modification to the Framework is permissible under Regulation Reg 72 (1) (c) Public Contracts Regulations 2015. Under this Regulation amendments can be made to the framework if the following conditions are met:
(i) the need for the 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;
(iii) any increase in price does not exceed 50% of the value of the original contract or framework agreement.
Our assessment has concluded that these conditions have been met as follows:
(i) the supplier price increases and associated higher than anticipated contract spend has been brought about by the significant increases in energy and fuel costs and inflationary increases which the WGCD could not have foreseen;
(ii) the modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract;
(iii) the increase of 4.78m GBP does not exceed 50% of the original framework value
VII.2.2) Reasons for modification
Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee.
Description of the circumstances which rendered the modification necessary and explanation of the unforeseen nature of these circumstances:
The modification in the published framework value is due to increased supplier product costs which could not have been foreseen.
The price increases have been largely driven by significant increases in fuel and energy costs over the last 12 months. The increases in fuel and energy have had a significant impact on the mining sector as its operations are heavily dependent on both.
Another contributory factor to the price increases is the higher than anticipated inflation increases over the last 12 months.
VII.2.3) Increase in price
Updated total contract value before the modifications (taking into account possible earlier contract modifications, price adaptions and average inflation)
Value excluding VAT: £9,580,000
Total contract value after the modifications
Value excluding VAT: £14,360,000
