Description
The original award value did not include the available extension periods. This modification updates the contract value to reflect the full potential contract term, including all extension options. No other changes have been made to the contract.
Rationale
Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: Following a review of the contract award notice, it was identified that the published contract value reflected only the initial contract term and did not include the value of the available extension periods. This modification is required to ensure the published contract value accurately reflects the full potential contract term as provided for in the original contract documentation.
