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

In October 2020, EA established a below threshold, directly awarded contract with C&F Heating and Plumbing for the value of £100,000 for

Services related to Reactive Mechanical Maintenance. The contract commenced on 27 Oct 20 until 31 March 21. The

direct award contract, was required to ensure urgent reactive mechanical maintenance cover to schools in the Belfast region as the

incumbent contractor declined to extend their contract to allow for the new procurement competition to be completed.

It has now become necessary to seek a further directly awarded contract with C&F Heating and Plumbing, due to ongoing litigation for

the replacement contract. EA issue this notice under the basis of PCR 2015 (32) (2) (c) Extreme urgency brought about by events

unforeseeable by the contracting authority. EA will apply a 10 day standstill period before awarding the contract C&F Heating and Plumbing in

June 2021 until 30 September 2021.
