Justification for not publishing a preliminary market engagement notice
The Contracting Authority is aware that the market is limited so preliminary market engagement would not have been of benefit - also the build up to this tender being prepared was during PCR 2015 too so there would have been no requirement undertake engagement.
Mae'r Awdurdod Contractio yn ymwybodol bod y farchnad yn gyfyngedig felly ni fyddai ymgysylltu rhagarweiniol â'r farchnad wedi bod o fudd - hefyd roedd y cyfnod cyn paratoi'r tendr hwn yn ystod PCR 2015 felly ni fyddai unrhyw ofyniad i ymgysylltu â'r farchnad.
