        "procurementMethodRationale": "Due to the heavily regulated nature of the industries within which the Participating Entities work, it is imperative to have access to up-to-date access to all relevant legislation, guidance and operating standards and procedures relevant to those organisations. In particular, our requirement for this information to be available through one single access portal is to ensure that all relevant information can be made available to users quickly and efficiently so as to mitigate the risk of oversight / conflict that may occur if users had to switch between multiple platforms. Furthermore, from a security and safety perspective, limiting the number of external platforms for users to access is an important consideration to Sellafield Ltd and the other Participating Entities given our obligation to maintain safe and secure sites. Sellafield Ltd has, through the publication of a Prior Information Notice (PIN), outlined its functional specification for the Online Standards Service, the intent of the PIN was to inform and understand the Supply Chain therefore the following requests was included within the notice: \"The intent of this notice is to understand if the Supply Chain: a) Would be interested in the opportunity. b) Have the capability to meet the full scope of this requirement. c) If unable to meet the full scope of the requirement; a. Advise what elements of the scope you can meet. b. Advise if you have an alternative solution for the remainder of the scope. The Service provider is also invited to identify other optional services that they can offer, that they believe to be relevant to the nuclear industry, in addition to those listed above.\" In doing so SL only received one expression of interest from IHS (Global) Ltd (\"IHS\") confirm that it is able to meet the requirement in full. It has been determined following the that in the current circumstances competition to deliver the services is absent for technical reasons and that, pursuant to Regulation 32(2)(b)(ii) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, Sellafield may award a contract to IHS using the negotiated procedure without prior publication of a contract notice in the Find a Tender Service. In particular, based upon its market engagement and responses through the publication of the PIN, the Participating Entities consider that there is no practical alternative to contracting with IHS for the provision of the services, given that IHS is the only organisation who has responded positively to being able to provide to the Participating Entities access to all the required standards through a single access portal."
