- Why no open competition
Extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable for the contracting authority/entity and in accordance with the strict conditions stated in the directive
- Published justification
East Lothian Council had been advised their appointed contractor from a previous competitive procedure was barred from membership of the Legionella Control Association. Membership of this is a mandatory requirement of the contract and a decision was made to remove the contractor due to this non-compliance. Due to the urgency surrounding this removal a contract was put in place without further competition to the second ranked contractor from the previous Open GPA procurement procedure – Reference No. JAN496721
Publisher note: Community Benefits are a requirement of this contract. A summary of the expected community benefits has been provided as follows: The Service Provider shall engage with the Council with regard to delivering proportionate Community Benefits in relation to the Contract in terms of social, economic, and environmental benefits, in order to achieve sustainability and best value from public spending to benefit the community.
