Why no open competition

The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator due to absence of competition for technical reasons

Published justification

No other reasonable alternative or substitute exists for this procurement as the technology is bespoke to Accuscience. This is an interim arrangement as a regional tender for blood tracking (BPAT) is currently in progress. To replace these haemobanks in the interim would require significant infrastructure, validation and ICT works that would impact on patient care and service delivery.
