Why no open competition: The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator due to protection of exclusive rights, including intellectual property rights
Published justification: Due to the specialist nature of the system, the handling cannot just be passed from one supplier to another at the contract end date as the company owns the software IP around which the system is currently dependent and deeply embedded.
