This report proposes a contract variation to
allow for the purchase of additional NEC (Northgate) Housing
Modules and associated professional services.
The variation is needed due to the following reasons:
• The original Northgate consultancy days applied to the
contract was not sufficient to cover the 5-year period of the
contract to support annual BAU and project activity
• Northgate have just released in September 2021 a series of
new service software modules in their upgrade to version V21.1.
These modules were not available at the time of the contract
signing
• This variation order will cover the support and maintenance
costs as well as the implementation costs for the lifetime of the
contract
The variation has included all known additional costs for the
remainder of the lifetime of the contract so that only one
variation be applied to the contract for its entirety.
