- Change This modification will increase the value of existing EA Integrated Financial Management Information System Inc. HR/Payroll (formerly the iFS Project, now the EA One Project) (2015/S 239-424558 OJEU publication date of 10 December 2015) by 46% of the original contract award amount. The modification is to facilitate functionality changes to effectively meet schools’ requirements, data migration issues due to the complexity of the variations in employee terms and conditions and project delays due to Covid-19 lockdowns, Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: No aspect of the modifications will alter the overall nature of the current contracts as the scope of services will remain unaltered and any expenditure during the extension period will not be permitted to exceed 50% of the value of the original contract agreement, this will be carefully monitored to ensure compliance. This modification is therefore in accordance with Regulation 72(1)(b) which permits an amendment to an existing contract: for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor that have become necessary and were not included in the initial procurement, where a change of contractor (i) cannot be made for economic or technical reasons such as requirements of interchangeability or interoperability with existing equipment, services or installations procured under the initial procurement; or (ii) would cause significant inconvenience or substantial duplication of costs for the contracting authority, provided that any increase in price does not exceed 50 % of the value of the original contract.
