Procedure rationaleBased on the legal advice East Midlands Railway intends to rely upon Schedule 5 of the Procurement Act 2023.
Hitachi Rail GTS UK Limited is the incumbent supplier of Retail Telecommunications Maintenance Services and is responsible for maintaining critical customer information and passenger announcement systems across the EMR estate.
The proposed arrangement represents a continuation of existing services and is strictly limited to the minimum period necessary to complete and mobilise an ongoing competitive procurement process being undertaken through CCS RM6347 Transport Technology.
A change of supplier during this interim period would create significant operational and service continuity risks, including risks relating to the maintenance and support of customer information systems, public address systems and associated telecommunications assets.
The proposed direct award is therefore necessary to ensure continuity of critical passenger information services whilst the competitive procurement is completed. |
