Section four. Procedure
four.1) Description
four.1.1) Type of procedure
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:
The NHS Wales Shared Services Procurement department on behalf of the Cardiff and Vale University Health Board have a requirement for the Maintenance and Repair of their Fleet of Tugs and pump trucks across the Health Board.
It is essential to the Health Board that these vehicles and equipment are maintained and operating correctly to ensure continuity of service. Due to the age of the fleet it is imperative the fleet is maintained and repaired with original manufacturers parts to ensure they are fully operating correctly.
Engaging with the market, it has been determined that whilst there are some third party suppliers who could potentially provide this service, they are unlikely to be able to offer the same expert knowledge, or replacement of original equipment parts at a competitive cost required for an effective support contract at this point of time, due to the urgency of this requirement.
