Why no open competition

Extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable for the contracting authority/entity and in accordance with the strict conditions stated in the directive

Published justification

GSA require a engagement platform provides a unique combination of functionality, including established integration with existing HR systems, proprietary methodologies for employee engagement analytics, and data used for organisational benchmarking. Due to unforeseen time constraints, transitioning to an alternative supplier would result in significant technical incompatibility, loss of historical data integrity, and disproportionate cost and operational disruption that cannot be reasonably mitigated within required timeframes. Accordingly, it is concluded that the conditions for a negotiated procedure without prior publication are met, as no reasonable alternative or substitute solution exists that would satisfy the authority's requirements without incurring unacceptable risk or inefficiency. Steps have been put into place to ensure adequate time is applied to reprocure this contract before expiry. Steps have been implemented to ensure that sufficient time is allocated to undertake a compliant re procurement exercise prior to the expiry of this contract, mitigating the risk of future direct awards and ensuring alignment with applicable procurement regulations.
