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):

— on 7 December 2016, the contract was novated to Irish Water and extended for a 12 month period to 31 December 2017.

— Irish Water has a current requirement for additional telemetry instrumentation and associatedsupport and maintenance services in order to ensure the continued and safe operation and maintenance ofthe DRTS until such time as a new contract is awarded.

— in addition, Irish Water has extended the contract to 31 December 2018 with the further option to extend until such time as the new contract is in place and the migration of the existing system to the new system has occurred. It is estimated that the migration may take upto 18 months.

VII.2.2)Reasons for modification

Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire (Art. 43(1)(b) of Directive 2014/23/EU, Art. 72(1)(b) of Directive 2014/24/EU, Art. 89(1)(b) of Directive 2014/25/EU)

Description of the economic or technical reasons and the inconvenience or duplication of cost preventing a change of contractor:

— the telemetry system provides critical real-time data on flows and pressure across Dublin City and Region.

— due to exclusive intellectual property rights, no other entity is capable of providing the required maintenance services, and instrumentation.

— as outlined above, an ongoing tender process is currently being run on a new system and it envisaged that the outcome of the new tender process will be known in 2018.

— it would be technically impossible to develop an interim system while the new system is being tendered and at the very least would cause significant inconvenience or substantial duplication of costs for Irish Water.

VII.2.3)Increase in price

Updated total contract value before the modifications (taking into account possible earlier contract modifications and price adaptions and, in the case of Directive 2014/23/EU, average inflation in the Member State concerned)

Total contract value after the modifications

Value excluding VAT: 3 500 000.00 EUR
