Why no open competition: The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the directive
Published justification: To ensure continuity of service to PSNI for their critical business functions whilst the requirement is retendered PSNI requires an extension of its original contract for an additional 6 months In this case, PSNI will seek to rely on the modification provisions of 72(1)(b) Additional works, services or supplies “have become necessary” and were not included in the initial procurement and a change of supplier would not be practicable (for economic, technical or interoperability reasons) and would involve substantial inconvenience/duplication of costs.
