Adequate time needs to be provided for bidders to mobilise their bid parameters. The Direct Award is entered into with the aim of providing adequate time for a competitive tender process to be undertaken. \nThe incompatible services would not only materialise as operational and technical incompatibilities but would also result in unsafe operation of a regulated asset.",
