MHCLG required modification to be made to this contract in order to broaden the scope of the maintenance and security contract (Services). The contract with Deconstruct UK Limited [DCUK] includes provision of repair and maintenance services, security services and facilities management services as well as the ability to carry out emergency deconstruction. The variation will provide for planned deconstruction services (Works) of Grenfell Tower to ground level.
This is justified under regulation 72(1)(b) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (PCR 2015), on the basis of there being technical reasons why a change of contractor cannot be made and due to the fact that any change in contractor would cause significant inconvenience and substantial duplication of costs. The value of the modification is less than 50% of the value of the original contract.
MHCLG published a voluntary ex ante transparency notice on 25 April 2025 stating its intention to modify this contract following a period of 30 days from the date of publication of that notice. [Notice Ref. 2025/S 000-016942].

- Change MHCLG required modification to be made to this contract so as to broaden the scope to include planned deconstruction of Grenfell Tower to ground level, rather than just emergency deconstruction. This is justified relying on regulation 72(1)(b) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (PCR 2015)., Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: MHCLG required modification to be made to this contract so as to broaden the scope to include planned deconstruction of Grenfell Tower to ground level, rather than just emergency deconstruction. This is justified relying on regulation 72(1)(b) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (PCR 2015). The published engineering advice is that the building should be deconstructed at the earliest opportunity as the best means to mitigate risks related to its condition. The building can currently be safely deconstructed. The longer the building is left in place, the risk of the structure's condition deteriorating to an unacceptable level, and the risks to the site operatives, who must go inside the building, increase. We are seeking to avoid needing to carry out emergency or unplanned deconstruction if safety risks increase. Planned deconstruction will minimise disruption to the community as it will minimise the use of noisy and percussive approaches and ensure dust control is in place from the outset. It would not be possible to do this to the same extent in the case of an emergency deconstruction. The Principal Contractor has unique site knowledge given they have: - - been working on the Grenfell site since 2017 - undertaken all three stages of propping - undertaken site clearance - led on the weekly monitoring of the props in the building since installation and undertaken any necessary remedial works The depth and longevity of the Principal Contractor's knowledge and understanding of the Tower, the site and neighbourhood, is a significant preventative measure regarding technical and health and safety risk. This is particularly pertinent to ensuring operative safety and to design the optimal methodology to minimise disruption during deconstruction works. This kind of knowledge cannot be gleaned quickly, and the relationships have now been formed over years.
