Why no open competition: The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the directive
Published justification: The Procurement was competed via the Crown Commercial Service RM1043.7 Digital Outcomes and Specialists 5 Framework Agreement, therefore prior publication was not required as Government Framework Agreement was used. There was not an option on this system that allowed us to select 'Government Framework' call-off as the 'Type of Procedure'.
