The Authority placed a contract with Royal Orthopaedic Hospital Birmingham (ROH) for the provision of Osseointegration for MoD patients that have had combat related injuries.

In accordance with the Public Procurement (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020 (SI 2020/1319) this procurement falls to be regulated under the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 as amended (in particular by SI 2020/1319).

It is considered that the award of the contract without prior publication of a contract notice in the UK e-notification service (in accordance with Regulation 32(2)(b)(ii) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015) is lawful on the basis that competition is absent for technical reasons.
