Payment obligations depend on the applicable regime and contract. Consult the official documents.
Coverage: 7 active published awards; 6 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Published-to-award variance compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

No-engagement rationaleNot published
Procedure rationaleThe Department currently owns 23 weather stations which have been purchased from Vaisala. Since Vaisala are the original manufacturers of the various elements making up the various weather stations, only they can currently provide the management and maintenance that is required for these stations without considerable cost to the Department of replacing the stations or at least replacing many of the separate elements which go to make up a weather station. Regulation 32 (2) (b) (ii) of the Public Contract Regulations 2015 enables contracting authorities to award public contracts by a negotiated procedure without prior publication where the services can be supplied only by a particular economic operator for technical reasons
