Without these, no other supplier could provide the support and maintenance services under the proposed contract to the pre-existing hardware. For the same reasons, no other supplier could provide upgrades to existing hardware.\n 2. The only means by which another supplier could provide services and supplies similar to those under the proposed contract would be to replace the existing hardware with an alternative solution. Very significant investment has been made to deploy the existing hardware and the majority of these assets still have a number of years before they reach ‘end of life’. To undertake a wholesale replacement of the hardware at this juncture would therefore be disproportionate and unreasonable.\nThe new contract will ensure continuity of these essential service.",
