It is considered that this contract can be awarded under Section 41 of the Procurement Act 2023 because the direct award justification specified in paragraph 6 of Schedule 5 applies, in that, due to an absence of competition for technical reasons, only a particular supplier, Babcock DRDL, have the necessary  technical expertise, knowledge and capability to deliver the requirement at a standard required. Babcock DRDL is the sole licence holder able to deliver the requirement and due to interoperability and capability risks there are no reasonable alternatives available.",
