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

No other reasonable alternative exists for this procurement and this service is critical to patient care and service delivery. The replacement of which would require infrastructure, ICT and extensive validation work that would result in significant disruption and disproportionate technical difficulties that would impact on the Trusts ability to deliver services. The absence of competition is not a result of the artificial narrowing of the parameters of the procurement. This is an interim measure as contract implementation is currently being progressed. The wider market was consulted when the ALMS tender was progressed.
