Procedure rationaleIt is understood the existing Swisslog pneumatic tube system in situ at the Queen's Medical Centre is a closed protocol system and only SWL UK Ltd are authorised by Swisslog to service, maintain and repair these systems in the UK. Therefore competition is absent for technical reasons on these grounds.<br/><br/>To substantiate this, a Prior Information Notice (PIN) notice was published as a Request for Information (RFI) to understand the market’s capability to provide the Services.<br/><br/>The response received to the RFI indicated the pneumatic system at the Queen's Medical Centre is closed protocol. Therefore, the Trust has awarded the contract based on relevant grounds under regulation 32 (Use of negotiated procedure without prior publication) of the Public Contract Regulations 2015. |
