Why no open competition
Additional Repeat Extension Partial Replacement
Published justification

Due to unforeseen circumstances, ERP implementation has been delayed so an extension is required to ensure no gap in coverage.

Review and risk notes
Risks

If there was a switch of providers from current incumbent to a new provider for a short term period, this would cause a disproportionate negative outcome for the Trust, causing patient safety risk through non-payment of suppliers.
