Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition
Why this procedure was chosen
Framework suppliers have been unable to effectively meet service requirements in respect of multi traveller, global trips with complex itineraries, which has led to fragmented ad-hoc travel bookings. This direct award represents establishing a more assured short-term service provision with clearer terms, provisioning effective time (recognising complexities of specified requirements, contract terms, and evaluation criteria) to undertake a competitive procurement for longer term contract requirements
