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: Loganair is currently the only provider of flights on these routes. Flights are predominately provided to patients to attend appointments in NHS GG&C with a smaller value of staff flights booked under the same contract. Flights are often the most cost effective and efficient transport
