Why no open competition: The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the directive
Published justification: ****3 | It is proposed that a third party Evam application is utilised rather than the development by Frequentis/Regola of its own app for IOS integration. This is a technical swap of one app for another, which will be effected through a Change Request. The resulting Change Authorisation Note is anticipated to supplement or amend references to the iOS app in the Contract with references to the Evam app and introduce a new sub-contractor, H&E Solutions AB t/a Evam. There will be no additional charge to the Authority.

Publisher note: ****2 | MODAS Gateway Integration. As part of the implementation programme, Motorola are instructed to provide a MODAS test system in order to enable Frequentis' development team to develop, test and certify the CAD GD-92 Message Transfer Agent (MTA) against the MODAS solution. Once certified, the CAD system can be deployed and connected with the MODAS systems used by Greater Manchester and Lancashire Fire and Rescue Services. An additional cost of £33,700 has been incurred. This is a new service not anticipated in the original Contract which will be effected through a Change Request. GO Reference: GO-202673-PRO-37223548
