Procurement Information
The direct award of a contract to the provider in this instance pursuant to Section 41(1)(a) of the Procurement Act 2023 is justified under Schedule 5 paragraph 5 (single suppliers) on the basis that the provider is in possession of certain exclusive rights to the properties through their freehold interest in the properties and therefore has the exclusive right to determine which providers deliver services within those properties. There are no reasonable alternatives available in relation to the delivery of the services.
