Procedure rationaleAward of a contract without prior publication of a call for competition in the cases listed below.
The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the regulations.
Explanation:
The DfE proposes to award a contract to Sayers & Partners LLP, for the supply of the School Climate Change Flood Risk Assessment, as part of the DfE Flood Resilience Strategy. Sayers & Partners designed, built and own the intellectual property in a climate change model (assessment toolset) which is used to assess the future flood risk to a variety of receptors including schools from three sources of flooding – coastal, surface water and fluvial flood sources.
The DfE believes that there is no other organisation in the market that can satisfy the technical requirements of the contract to deliver a Climate Change Risk Assessment report, updating the contractors assessment toolset to assess the future flood risk to schools from three sources of flooding.
As a result, the DfE believes that Public Contracts Regulations 2015, Regulation 32(2) applies.
Regulation 32(2) states:
“The negotiated procedures without prior publication may be used for public works contracts, public supply contracts and public service contracts in any of the following cases:-
(b) where the works, supplies or services can be supplied only by a particular economic operator for any of the following reasons:-
(ii) competition is absent for technical reasons…”
