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: Historical arrangement that has been in place for many years without a current contractual agreement in place and an SLA since 2010 to see 70 clients a year. The providers work with a unique client group and are an expert in their specialism. Activity and outcomes evidence value for money.
