Why no open competition
Additional Repeat Extension Partial Replacement
Published justification

Continuity of the current supplier is required to ensure ongoing service support and to prevent disruption to existing processes.

In addition, the Authority is planning a full replacement of the telephony system, meaning it would not be practical or cost‑effective to change suppliers for a short interim period.
