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 was awarded in accordance with regulation 32 (2) (b) (ii) Competition absent due to Technical Reasons. Due to compatibility reasons, the original manufacture needs to carry out the upgrade. The detailed specifications, requirements and optical systems within these systems are only known to the manufacturer and an attempted upgrade without detailed knowledge of the systems and their individual specifications is likely to fail.
