Why no open competition
The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the directive
Published justification

This procurement was carried out under an established framework from ESPO (664_25) which allows for an award without further competition on specific Lots. Lot 4b was used which allows for this.

We reviewed information about the suppliers within the framework documentation and established that for the service we require, the chosen supplier was the only one who provides the required service, materials and guidance we specifically need, whilst also achieving the required value for money.

By following the guidance and requirements set out within the framework, this has satisfied the need to call off without further competition under the Public Contract Regulations 2015.
