    • Change The new value of the contract in VII.1.6 is the estimated maximum new value, but the value of the additional work may range from nil to 7000000 GBP. The purpose of the modification is to: - allow for the construction and operation of a railhead at the Supplier’s Precast Slab Track Production facility, to enable the Track Systems Contractors to transport the Slab Track to the construction railheads by rail as well as by road (the “Railhead Modification”); and - extend the design support to cover the timing between the system design and detailed design phases whilst the Track Systems procurement is concluded, due to programme changes over time (the “Transition Modification”)., Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: The new value of the contract in VII.1.6 is the estimated maximum new value, but the value of the additional work may range from nil to 7000000 GBP.
