- 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
The proposed robotic bronchoscopy work is directly related to previous work targeting the same clinical need (lung diagnostics), and there is a potential for the robotic system to be used to guide fibres and microendoscopes developed by the Universities of Edinburgh and Bath. As such, there is considerable value is maintaining and sharing knowledge created across these projects which a new supplier could not match. This project is expected to last 6 weeks and inform a longer term and much larger delivery project, the subject of a separate tendering exercise should this pilot proposal prove viable.
