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

PCR (Scotland) 2015, Regulation 33 - Negotiated procedure without prior publication.

Review and risk notes
Review procedure

Economic operators should approach the contracting authority in the first instance. However, the only formal remedy is to apply to the

courts: An economic operator that suffers, or is at risk of suffering, loss or damage attributable to a breach of duty under the Public

Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 or the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014, may bring proceedings in the Sheriff Court or the

Court of Session.
