Why no open competition

The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator due to protection of exclusive rights, including intellectual property rights

Published justification

As per Reg 32.2(b)(iii) - Telent has exclusive rights to support and maintain the ICCS system currently used by NIFRS, as this supplier holds the intellectual property rights and source code and therefore is the only supplier that can provide this service.
