Why no open competition

The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator due to absence of competition for technical reasons

Published justification

The services provided under this contract represent a critical component of National Highways' Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS), itself a system that is fundamental to the safe management of traffic on the Strategic Road Network (SRN). It is therefore the case that a continuation of these services with the incumbent supplier is necessary in order to reduce the level of technical and operational risk that would be caused by a change in supplier in the short-term.

As above, the hosted ATMS is a highly complex, safety critical element of the National Highways' Operational Technology eco-system and is currently in the process of being implemented across our multiple Regional Control Centres (RCCs). As such, the end-to-end ATMS is under continual development and improvement prior to reaching a fully operational steady state.

It is therefore the intention of National Highways to conduct a future competitive procurement for these services at the end of this contract term.
