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 is a low value, below-threshold procurement. Unity cluster BACS solution delayed so continuity of service required. Costs of switching supplier and modifying existing SFTP link with ERP Supplier at this moment in time would exceed this contract value (not VfM). Also would be a highly complex exercise, risking DfT not being able to send/receive critical payments.
