Why no open competition
The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the directive
Published justification

Under Regulation 44, Utilities are required to make a 'prior call for competition' in restricted procedures (Regulation 44(3)) and this can be made by way of periodic indicative notice, notice on the existence of a qualification system (e.g. the RISQS notice on c2c's website) or a contract notice.

Therefore, where a party uses a compliant notice on the existence of a qualification system, there is no need to also issue a contract notice.
