Procurement Information

The contractors has been engaged in prior phases of the project and holds details of project specific knowlegde that will ensure continuity of supply. Any transition to a new supplier would therefore introduce a steep learning curve, requiring substantial rework, risking disruption to service delivery, and incurring additional administrative and procurement costs. Given these circumstance, a direct award aligns with schedule 5, paragraph 8 of the Procurement Act 2023 - permitted where a contract repeats works or services similar to those previously executed by the same supplier.
