## Description
The Council is seeking to award a call-off contract for the supply of goods associated with the provision of Real Time Passenger Information (RTPI), under Crown Commercial Service Framework RM6347, Transport Technology, Lot 8e.
The call-off has been awarded using the Framework's Award Without Competition (AWOC) procedure. In accordance with the Framework call-off provisions, the Council considered the Award Without Competition Full Service Offers available under the relevant Lot and assessed those offers against its defined requirements.
The Council's requirement is for goods that are capable of operating within, and maintaining interoperability with, the existing Real Time Passenger Information environment utilised by surrounding local authorities. These neighbouring authorities operate within an established Journeo environment, including an operational back-office system. Passenger transport services operate across local authority boundaries and the respective systems are required to exchange and process real-time passenger information across those boundaries.
Compatibility and interoperability with the existing environment are therefore fundamental requirements of the procurement rather than supplier preferences. The goods must be capable of operating within the existing technical environment and enabling the continued exchange of real-time passenger information between participating authorities without requiring changes that would prevent or materially impair that interoperability.
The Council applied the Award Without Competition procedure provided for by Framework RM6347 Lot 8e. The Framework provides that where a single platform item is the only item meeting the customer's requirements, that offering may be selected. Where more than one offering is capable of meeting the requirement, selection is required to be undertaken using the Framework's objective mechanism of lowest price.
Following assessment of the available offerings against the Council's requirements, the Council identified the selected offering as the only platform item capable of meeting the requirement / lowest-priced capable offering. The contract has therefore been awarded in accordance with the Award Without Competition provisions of RM6347 Lot 8e and the applicable call-off terms of the Framework.
