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

UoD are currently utilising systems that include integrations with the well-established supplier, WPM, who have been embedded with the student journey for the past 9 years. It is vital to ensure consistency for income collection and integrations ensuring applicants and students are not impacted, particularly as we are reliant on cashless processes as a direct result of COVID-19. Therefore, the decision was made to renew the contract with WPM for 3+2 years.
