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

Only one economic operator has exclusive rights for this procurement, these biocompatible artificial kidneys prevent adverse reactions during haemodialysis. These are prescribed by a consultant nephrologist and are the only clinically compatible product suitable for the treatment of a small cohort of patients. No other reasonable alternative exists. The absence of competition is not a result of the artificial narrowing of the parameters of procurement.
