Procedure rationaleThe basis of this direct award is that set out at Schedule 5, Paragraph 6 Procurement Act 2023 namely that:
· Due to an absence of competition for technical reasons, only a particular supplier can supply the goods, services or works required; and
· There are no reasonable alternatives to those goods, services or works.
And Schedule 6, Paragraph 7 Procurement Act 2023 namely that:
· A change in supplier would result in the contracting authority receiving goods, services or works that are different from, or incompatible with, the existing goods, services or works.
· The difference or incompatibility would result in disproportionate technical difficulties in operation or maintenance. |
