Why no open competition

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

Published justification

The award was given based on technical ability to provide Castles and Coasts Housing Association with complex IT solutions, Total Mobile Solution has been implemented successfully and is not provided by any other provider. The cost of change due to the number of system integration and process changes would cause adverse cost.

Publisher note: Totalmobile Connect, from Totalmobile Ltd has been implemented successfully and is not provided by any other provider. The cost of change due to the number of system integrations and process changes would make re-tendering uncompetitive for alternate solutions. The Contracting Authority had the option to use G-Cloud as a route to market but this offered significantly less competitive value for money than going direct, which is the primary reason for this notice. The contractual agreement will be reviewed after the term has expire in 2026
