Why no open competition
Additional Repeat Extension Partial Replacement
Published justification

•Additional or repeat goods or services: A change in supplier would mean the contracting authority receives different or incompatible services. The difference or incompatibility would result in disproportionate technical difficulties in operation or maintenance of critical services.

  • Direct award is for a short-term arrangement to maintain continuity of service until the planned re-procurement of a more strategic contract is in place.
