Rationale
Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: - The depth of technical knowledge and experience in prior and ongoing stakeholder engagement, combined with the detailed in-depth understanding of the path taken to completion of this complex work to date is critical to the success of this project (this being the first time compensatory measures have been considered at this scale). To ensure robust, accurate, meaningful and fit for purpose outputs, it is essential the final reports are delivered by the original contractors. - SG do not have the capacity to facilitate a handover between the current and potential new contractors – whose appointment and need to rapidly familiarise themselves with the background and work completed to date would result in a substantive waste of internal resources and significant duplication of effort and costs.
