"noEngagementNoticeRationale": "The City has not conducted any Preliminary Market Engagement prior to the issuing of the Tender Notice, due to the following: Pre-market engagement was not conducted for this procurement due to the clearly defined nature of the requirement, which aligns with existing market capabilities and standards. The procurement is being undertaken using an above-threshold open procedure under the Procurement Act, with appropriate vetting requirements and experience-based conditions of participation included in the tender. Sufficient knowledge of the market was already available internally, based on previous procurements and sector-specific expertise, making it possible to develop robust and relevant documentation without the need for additional engagement. Given the urgency and resource considerations involved, it was deemed proportionate and efficient to proceed directly to tender."
