- 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
Welsh Government funding provided on condition of services to be completed within timeframe. A competitive procurement process would not be able to be done within the time restraint. Therefore a Framework Direct Award Call off has been chosen to satisfy the urgency.
