Description
The WMG Department of the University of Warwick has a requirement to purchase interim and final Digital Innovation for Manufacturing (DI4M) project evaluation services. The project scope has been extended to cover additional geographies to now include Worcestershire, Leicester and Leicestershire and the South East Midlands. Due to an increase in the volume of data to be managed and the number of advisers required there has been an increase in project costs from £25k to £35k from the original tender. In accordance with regulation 72 (1) (b) (ii), we are providing a notice as we have modified a contract as per 72 (1) (b) (ii) and are sending a notice to that effect in accordance with regulation 51 for publication.
