    • Change The contract length and value have both been increased. This is to allow the Council to consider the future commissioning approach., Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: The scope of the contract isn't changing, and the cost to move the equipment that the current supplier stores on behalf of the Council would be disproportionate for a 12 month period. A new supplier may also lead to disruption related to individuals, in potentially having equipment inspected and/or removed from their homes and reinstalled more than once in a fairly short space of time.
