- Change The Client requires an extension to the FlexCHOICE Waters service support plan on both systems for a further five years. This will ensure that service cover is in place for both instruments for their projected whole-lifespan of 10-years. the revised contract dates and value for each lot are: Lot 1 (from Sept 2023 – 2028): £147,320.84 and Lot 2 (from April 2024 – March 2029): £153,870.64, Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: The modification will ensure that service cover is in place for both instruments for their projected whole-lifespan of 10-years. A change of supplier would not be practical as Waters are the only manufacturer who can provide service plans on the TQ-XS systems which encompass the scale of the needs outlined above – with particular emphasis placed on software and firmware support.
