- Why no open competition
- The procurement falls outside the scope of application of the directive
- Published justification
The Council intends to award a contract, subject to a 10-day standstill period, without prior publication of a contract notice on the following basis:
- It believes competition is absent for technical reasons (Regulation 32(2)(b)(ii))
In compliance with the Public Contract Regulations 2015, all awards of contracts that are subject to UK Procurement Directives are subject to a mandatory "standstill" period of at least 10 days. A Contract cannot be entered into with the preferred provider until at least the eleventh calendar day following notification. This would not prevent continuing discussions with the preferred provider to ensure prompt mobilisation. The standstill period is expected to end at midnight at the end of 22 September 2022. If steps are taken during this period to suggest that there may be a formal legal challenge to this award, or the Council determines an issue/concern with the process or preferred submission, then the contract award may be suspended until the matter is resolved (or not concluded if the matter cannot be resolved).
Subject to no legal challenge being received, the Council intends to execute the Contract at the conclusion of the standstill period.
