Section four. Procedure
four.1) Description
four.1.1) Type of procedure
Competitive procedure with negotiation
Accelerated procedure
Justification:
This procurement was undertaken using the Negotiated Procedure with accelerated timescales. This is being justified due to the fact that the service must be in place by early 2022 to enable effective testing and then use of cloud/hosted-based systems which must have been transitioned to by the 31st March 2022 to enable continuity of education from 1st April 2022. Given the COVID-19 situation the main telecommunication providers have given notice that there may well be disruption to their normal implementation timeframes and thus orders need to be placed as soon as possible. The Trust, therefore, needs to de-risk this situation and be in a position to place orders as soon as possible and this, therefore, is the justifiable reason to utilise accelerated timescales.
