Why this procedure was chosen
The subscription is not a service which can be provided by different companies as it is a specific forum which requires annual subscription, and as such a competitive tender process is not appropriate in this circumstance under the direct award justifications as set out in Schedule 5, paragraph 6 of the Procurement Act - which allows the contracting authority to award a public contract without a competitive procedure when only one supplier is capable of delivering the contract, due to technical exclusivity
