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 Vision system and its support as well as the associated IT infrastructure services has been provided by Vision to these practices. Due to interoperability requirements these services needed to be provided by the same supplier. The responsibility for resolving any issues of interoperability between these components rests solely with Vision.

The supply and support of these services associated with the Vision GP IT Clinical system by another supplier additional 3rd party would introduce risk and uncertainty into the support process where it is likely that both suppliers would blame each other for any failures, so delaying resolution and prolonging disruption to practices.
