Notice Information
Notice Title
Recurring Professional Services
Notice Description
GSA requires ongoing consultancy, professional services, and system training from MRI Software Limited. The total contract value is PS165,240 (inclusive of VAT) over a two-year term. GSA will purchase service credits in advance and draw down against these credits as consultancy, professional services, and training support are required.
Procurement Information
MRI Software Limited is the sole supplier capable of providing these services, as it owns and supports the wider MRI software ecosystem used by GSA. The company possesses the specialist technical expertise, system knowledge, integration capability and intellectual property rights necessary to deliver the required consultancy, professional services and training. The services are intrinsically linked to MRI's proprietary software solutions and require detailed knowledge of system configuration, functionality, ongoing product developments and existing integrations within GSA's technology estate. This expertise cannot be readily or cost-effectively replicated by a third-party provider without introducing significant risks to service delivery, system performance, programme timelines and business continuity. Consequently, MRI Software Limited is considered the only supplier capable of delivering these services to the required standard and within the required timescales, making a direct award the most appropriate procurement route. The Technology Products & Associated Services 2 (TEPAS2) Framework (RM6098) was explored as a potential procurement route for this requirement.
