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

The Lumicks C-Trap systems feature a unique integration of microfluidics, optical tweezers, and fluorescence imaging capabilities, which facilitate seamless and efficient data collection. Given the proprietary nature of both the hardware and software, no other suppliers can provide equivalent service contracts or support.
