Why no open competition

Extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable for the contracting authority/entity and in accordance with the strict conditions stated in the directive

Published justification

The Trust thinks that there is a limited market to provide these services - as such running a competitive process for a short term contract would not be proportionate.

Under the light touch regime, the Trust has a duty to act in accordance with the principles of equal treatment and transparency, publishing this notice will help the Trust achieve this.

Publisher note: This VEAT Notice is published under the Public Contract Regulations 2015. It is for clinical services which are Light Touch Regime services for the purpose of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 as specified in Schedule 3 of the Regulations ('Regulations'). Accordingly, the contracting authority is only bound by those parts of the Regulations detailed in Chapter 3 Particular Procurement Regimes Section 7. The contracting authority is not voluntarily following any other part of the Regulations.
