Why no open competition
Urgency
Published justification

If door pushbuttons aren't maintained or replaced at the time based overhaul, you risk:

People not getting off when they need to

Doors opening or staying open when they shouldn't

Staff making decisions based on incorrect information

All of which can lead to serious injury or fatality.
