This does not give the Authority sufficient time to comply with the standard open procedure timescales for this procurement. The authority considers this to be a state of urgency which it has duly substantiated. Accordingly, the authority is using the accelerated time limits permitted under the Public Contract Regulations2015 (Regulation 27(5) for the open procedure) in respect of this procurement."
