rationale: Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: This modification is made in accordance with Regulation 72(1)(e) of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015. The change relates solely to the corporate ownership of the contracted supplier. It does not alter the overall nature of the contract, does not change the economic balance of the contract in favour of the supplier, and does not introduce a new contractor. The modification is therefore not considered substantial and does not require a new procurement procedure.

description: Following the acquisition of Event Medical Group Ltd by Merged Education Ltd, effective from 16th May 2025, this modification reflects the formal recognition of the change in supplier ownership. The services delivered under the existing contract will continue to be performed by the same personnel and at the same standard, with no changes to the scope, pricing, or duration of the original agreement.

THE ROSS FOUNTAIN
 Princes Street,
 Edinburgh,
 Edinburgh & The Lothians,
 EH1 2EU
 Located at the heart of Edinburgh city in the beautiful setting of Princes Street Gardens is the Ross Fountain.
 Sculpted by artist Jean-Baptiste Jules Klagmann, this fountain has been made from cast-iron, a shining example of 19th century sculpture. If you take a closer look at the base of the fountain, there are mermaids, walrus and lion heads and cherubs. At the top are featured four female figures representing science, arts, poetry and industry.
 In 1862, a local gun maker Mr Daniel Ross saw the fountain in London at the Great Exhibition and described it as "obtaining universal admiration". As a gift to Edinburgh city, in September 1869 Daniel Ross bought the sculpture and had the 122 pieces shipped to Leith where they would later be sent to Princes Street Gardens to be assembled. Sadly, before the fountain was completed and officially opened in 1872, David Ross died one year before, missing the opportunity to see the masterpiece displayed in the gardens.
 The City of Edinburgh Council requires a maintenance contractor to undertake annual maintenance and repairs of the Ross Fountain including legionella control,
 There may be occasions where ad-hoc specialist services are required from the contractor in relation to the Fountain and you may be required to subcontract on behalf of the Council.
