Why no open competition

The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator due to absence of competition for technical reasons

Published justification

As per Reg 32.2(b)(iii) - the technological infrastructure installed on the Barracuda system details that Motorola is the only licensed operator allowed to access the Barracuda network therefore Motorola digital radios are the only equipment permissible.
