"description": "The contract is being awarded under the negotiated procedure without call to competition based on extreme urgency under regulation 32 (c) brought about by the emergency of the SARS-COV-2 virus which was unforeseeable by the contracting authority. The Contracting authority had carried out a recent tender exercise to replace their current contract which it was forced to abandon due to procedural issues at the point of making an award recommendation. Due to the emergence of the SARS-COV-2 virus and the declaration of an NHS emergency that was formally declared by the Scottish Government in March 2020. The contracting authority is not in a position to run a competitive tender or has the resource to carry out an evaluation in addition to dealing with the declared emergency around the current pandemic. Any further delay to awarding the Contract would cause significant clinical risk as the current equipment is now 10 years old and problematic to maintain. The new contract is urgently needed to ensure that patient care is not affected and services can be maintained at the required levels to maintain UKAS accreditation. Based on the emergency and the risk to the service the Contracting Authority has made the decision to award the contract to the current supplier, who had provided the most economically advantageous tender under the abandoned process and who are capable of replacing equipment with minimal impact on the current services in the current state of emerngency.
