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

Following the award of the original contract (Contract Award Notice No. MAR408511) there has been an unexpected need for a greater intensity and duration of service. Given the nature of the Inquiry, a continued uninterrupted service and operation is required. The service requirement is time sensitive and must fit with the anticipated programme of the Inquiry. A change of supplier at this stage would disrupt the Inquiry, cause serious operational difficulties and result in cost increases. Reliance on Regulation 33(1)(b)(ii) is therefore satisfied in this case.
