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: This contract is for an upgrade to an existing electron microscope and the equipment manufacturer is the only provider authorised to and technically capable of meeting our requirements and therefore an award of a contract without prior publication of a call for competition is justified under regulation 32(2)(b)(ii) of the PCR 2015 because competition is absent for technical reasons.
