Procurement Method Details
Direct award
Why this procedure was chosen
This is being processed as a direct award because there are no substitute/competing products for BSC memberships. As there are no alternatives a competitive exercise is not viable. Direct award conditions and permissible justifications are set out under Chapter 3 and Schedule 5 of the Procurement Act. There is justification for a direct award on the grounds set out under paragraph 5 of Schedule 5 where the following conditions are met in relation to the public contract (a) due to a particular supplier having intellectual property rights or other exclusive rights, only that supplier can supply the goods, services or works required, and (b) there are no reasonable alternatives to those goods, services or works.
