Should the preferred option be reviewed in the FBC?

The Director of Pittville University has resigned during the procurement process. As a result, the Deputy Director is now acting as Director. The other schools have now withdrawn their objections to Pittville University running the new campus. It is thought that the delivery approach could be revised so that Pittville University manages all 16-18-year-olds education and further cost reductions could be achieved. There is no option in the OBC that provides this delivery approach with the service solution of a new campus.

Should the preferred option be reviewed in the FBC? (Select one)
A . No, because the lack of a Director of Pittville University would not affect a delivery approach involving Pittville University.
B . No, because the preferred option should remain unchanged once selected at OBC.
C . Yes, because the FBC must demonstrate that the preferred option offers better VFM than the other available options.
D . Yes, because the FBC should consider the organization’s strategy for managing contractual change.
