We believe in this circumstance the following is applicable:\nThere are grounds where NTL as public body could modify a contract with a third party using the exemptions in Regulation 88 of the UCR. This exemption is provided for under the following UCR Regulation:\n88.-(1) Contracts and framework agreements may be modified without a new procurement procedure in accordance with these Regulations based on the following:\n(b) for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor, irrespective of their value, that have become necessary and were not included in the initial procurement where a change of contractor:\n(i) cannot be made for economic or technical reasons such as requirements of interchangeability or interoperability with existing equipment, software, services or installations procured under the initial procurement; and\n(ii) would cause significant inconvenience or substantial duplication of costs for the utility.\nThe absence of competition is not the result of an artificial narrowing down of the parameters of the procurement.",
