Description
The revised contract scope agreed with CityFibre has reduced the total premises and contract values from 569,000 and £925 million to 226,000 and £504 million.
Rationale
Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: Project Gigabit programme has been re-scoped in response to the accelerated rollout of commercially funded full fibre across Project Gigabit areas. These changes have been informed by BDUK’s rolling Open Market Review process
