Why no open competition: The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the directive
Published justification: The Trust appointed Camburg to deliver a sensitive and critical programme of works to support the Trusts improvement programme.
Given the sensitivity and criticality of time and works, the four separate projects were all awarded to Camburg to provide continuity and consistency of service, and cost.
The four separate projects have been bench marked against approved framework agreements to ensure value for money was being achieved and reported as part of the Trusts internal reporting mechanisms.
The urgency and criticality of the requirement outpaced the time required to conduct a suitable procurement process.
Although the supplier is listed on suitably qualified and approved framework agreements, the agreement was made outside of the call off order processes.
