    • Change Increases to contract values required as follows, Lots: IAS3 (Armagh) contract value to be increased from 12 000 000 GBP to 17 400 000 GBP, IAW6 (Derry) contract value to be increased from 7 000 000 GBP to 10 150 000 GBP, IAN1 (Ballymena) contract value to be increased from 7 000 000 GBP to 10 150 000 GBP, IAE1 (Belfast North) contract value to be increased from 5 900 000 GBP to 8 555 000 GBP, IAW5 (Cookstown) 4 800 000 GBP to 6 960 000 GBP and IAN2 (Larne & Carrickfergus) 4 000 000 GBP to 5 800 000 GBP. To allow for improvements to the road network, improving safety, the value of works to be provided through these contracts has increased, resulting in a need to increase contract values from those initially envisaged. This increased level of expenditure was unforeseen when the ITCAR contract strategy was published., Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: The Department experienced delays to the procurement of the ITCAR programme. These were caused by the impact of the Covid pandemic on Departmental and Economic Operator’s staff, extreme price fluctuations in construction materials and fuel during both the pandemic and the war in Ukraine. Significant resource funding pressures slowed recruitment of staff resulting in significant Dept vacancies. During 22/23, these issues resulted in reduced contract coverage for road maintenance works, exacerbating the ongoing deterioration of the network. To allow for essential improvements to the road network improving safety, the value of works provided through these contracts has increased, resulting in a need to increase contract values from those initially envisaged. This level of expenditure was unforeseen when the ITCAR strategy was published. A strategy for replacement contracts has completed consultation stages, the final report has been published, with procurement due to commence mid-2024.
