Procurement Information
National Highways is relying on Regulation 32(2)(b)(ii) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 to justify the use of the negotiated procedure without prior publication for the following reasons: The service utilizes a configured solution for NH's based on the proposed service providers COTS solution AssetWise and has bespoke coding elements and design elements in the core software made specifically to meet NH's specific requirements (e.g. utilization of NH's network model, calculation of KPI 3 data, Roadwork Clash Analysis) that provide critical functionality. Further, the Asset Management Systems landscape within National Highways uses several solutions for different asset classes like pavements, geotechnical, drainage, lighting and ancillaries, with which the IAM IS solution integrates and interoperates in a highly ad-hoc configured and complex data model that is embedded in business processes. The complexity of the dependency, interoperability and integration with numerous existing systems cannot be achieved due to these technical reasons before the current contract ends or within at least around 18 months. The complexity and criticality of the requirement results in a minimum lead time of 18 months to be factored into an implementation plan for a replacement solution, with a considerable investment. A significant investment has been made to deploy the existing solution which still has several years before it reaches 'end of life' and to undertake a wholesale replacement of it at this juncture would therefore be a disproportionate and unreasonable cost in the circumstances.
