Why no open competition
Single Suppliers Technical Reasons
Published justification

DSE is the front end of, and is directly fed from, our FHIR R4 API, which this supplier hosts. Another supplier would not be able to provide the front end (DSE) without also hosting the API.

In summary, it would not be technically feasible or economically efficient for another provider to carry out this work.
