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: User licences are required to support continued use of an existing IT system. Original intention was to procure these through a Framework Agreement permitting direct award to a software reseller but the parties were unable to agree terms.
