Contract Name PROVISION OF AIR TRAFFIC NAVIGATION SERVICES AT VIRGINIA AIRPORT 2. Award Awarded on 1st April 2016 to Air Traffic Navigation Services (ATNS) (Ltd) following a report to the eThekwini Executive Committee for approval thereof. 3. Contract Authority Current (original) contract authority amount is R2, 731, 920 to be increased R9, 339, 498 for up to 3 years (VAT excluded). 4. Reasons for Amendment The Operators at Virginia Airport have been offered a 3-year lease as per a Council Resolution on 4th December 2014, where it was resolved ‘to engage the Airport Operators around relocation issues and the extension of their lease for a period not exceeding three years or until relocation to alternative site(s) is realized, whichever comes first’. It was therefore felt that a similar arrangement should extend to the service provider for the navigation services as a fixed term contract will not be practical should the relocation occur first. 5.
