Why this procedure was chosen
The Authorities are satisfied that competition is absent because only one supplier has been identified as capable of delivering the complete requirement, including the specialist support services that are integral to the effective operation of the system. Market engagement was undertaken to test this position and did not identify any alternative supplier capable of meeting the Council's requirements in full. Accordingly, the Authorities intend to award the contract directly under Schedule 5 of the Procurement Act 2023.

No Agreed Metrics Rationale
No contractual KPIs were included within the executed contract. The contract was entered into using the supplier's standard terms and performance is managed through ongoing operational monitoring and relationship management. The service has been delivered satisfactorily previously without the need for formal KPI measures, and no significant performance or compliance issues have been identified. The nature of the contract also does not lend itself to meaningful KPI measurement.
