        "procurementMethodRationale": "Negotiated without a prior call for competition (in accordance with Regulation 50(1)(c) of the Utilities Contracts Regulations 2016 (\"UCR\")) The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator for the following reason: * absence of competition for technical reasons. Explanation: GWR considers that the award of this contract is permitted pursuant to Regulation 50(1)(c) of UCR. Regulation 50(1)(c) of the UCR permits the use of the negotiated procedure without prior publication of a notice where the works, supplies or services can be supplied only by a particular economic operator because competition is absent for technical reasons, but only where no reasonable alternative or substitute exists and the absence of competition is not the result of an artificial narrowing down of the parameters of the procurement. GWR's view is that the supplies under the contract can be supplied only by Angel Trains Limited because competition is absent for technical reasons and no reasonable alternative or substitute exists. Due to the operational requirements of the Devon and Cornwall routes that the rolling stock will operate on, namely 100mph capability and ability to operate over steep gradients, minimum fuel range of circa 1000 miles, and 2 - 5 car formations with selective door opening, only Class 175s can meet all the requirements and are available with sufficient lead time to be in operation for May 2025. No alternative provider can provide the Class 175s. This absence of competition is not the result of an artificial narrowing down of the parameters of the procurement. The contract will have provisions to potentially run until 2032."
