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

The Council has considered the Services to be provided under the Contract, and does not consider that these Services could be effectively provided by an alternative or substitute consultant. The Council believes that the requirement to use Omnigenix as a consultant (and the fact that there is no alternative provider) arises from technical reasons.

In particular, given Omnigenix' previous involvement in the Cyber Central redevelopment, Omnigenix has specific know-how at its disposal that is relevant and essential to the effective delivery of the Services (that is, Omnigenix' "corporate memory" is the determining factor as to why Omnigenix is the only economic operator capable of performing the Services, and why competition is absent for technical reasons).
