Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition
Why this procedure was chosen
While the framework itself was established in accordance with PCR 2015, the requirement to publish a new, prior call for competition for this specific award falls outside the scope of the regulation (as per Regulation 33). This contract was awarded following a mini-competition under the Omni CPV NVMSP Framework (OJEU Contract Award Notice 077-1122) established by Agri-EPI Centre Limited. Because this is a call-off contract under an existing, compliant framework, no separate tender notice was required.
