"noEngagementNoticeRationale": "No market engagement was undertaken prior to issuing this tender notice as the requirement is well-defined and based on established specifications and industry standards. The contracting authority has sufficient knowledge of the market from previous procurements and existing contracts, and the scope does not involve innovation, complex solutions, or significant uncertainty that would necessitate pre-market consultation. Conducting market engagement was therefore not considered proportionate or necessary, and open competition through the tender process is deemed sufficient to ensure value for money and fair access to the market."

"riskDetails": "There is a risk in delays in sourcing or producing surface dressing chippings due to quarry issues, plant breakdown, labour shortages, or supplier failure. Failure to deliver chippings on time due to traffic, vehicle breakdowns, adverse weather, or scheduling conflicts, particularly during peak surfacing periods. Funding may be made available during the contract term that may potentially increase surface dressing programmes and quantities may fluctuate as a result. Nothing is known about at this time but it is common practice for new funding streams to be announced at fairly short notice."
