Award of a contract without prior publication of a call for competition in the cases listed below
- The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the regulations
Explanation:
As part of our Transformation Programme, the Company wanted to align to one contract for the 3 Councils, instead of having separate instances. The cost to move to another system would have been costly and would have incurred additional training and resources required which is not currently viable. By entering into this 5-year agreement, this allows the Company to have continuity of a system for a period of time whilst being able to look forward and plan for any future procurement with adequate time.
