Section four. Procedure

four.1) Description

four.1.1) Type of procedure

Negotiated without a prior call for competition

  • The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator for the following reason:
    • absence of competition for technical reasons

Explanation:

St George's Crypt are the only provider that has the expertise, capacity, experience and local knowledge and connections to deliver the service currently, which correlates with the requirements of the provision as to a lack of competition for technical reasons.

There are no concerns with the current provision which would suggest that there is any meaningful risk with entering into a new contract with St George's Crypt. They have consistently met their contractual obligations and are established key partners who have engaged with clients, commissioners, and other stakeholders with regard to service delivery for rough sleepers and people at risk of homelessness.

St George's Crypt deliver the service from established premises which would be impossible to replicate within such short timescales through alternative provision.

Recommissioning the Overnight and Hub service in the city provides continuity of care for vulnerable, at-risk clients and minimise disruption for the connected services within the city who support rough sleepers and those at risk of homelessness.
