Explanation:

The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator for the following reason:

Purchase of supplies or services on particularly advantageous terms

The combination of O2 Arena's proximity to CU London Greenwich (approx. 500 metres from the campus) and its media/marketing channel customer reach, provides a uniquely competitive advantage . We do not believe that there is another provider on the North Greenwich Peninsula that can provide this unique combination of channels, that would reach the same number of impressions for the proposed fee and is within close proximity of the CU London Greenwich campus allowing for ease of communication and collaboration.
