"procurementMethodDetails": "Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition",
"procurementMethodRationale": "A direct award is justified on the basis that the G-Cloud 14 framework (RM1557.14) was established under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (PCR 2015) using a framework agreement procedure compliant with Regulation 33. Under Reg. 33(8), contracting authorities may award call-off contracts without reopening competition, provided the call-off follows the rules set out in the framework agreement.\nIn accordance with the G-Cloud 14 Buyer\u0027s Guide and framework rules, the Authority is required to:\n- identify services that meet its needs using the Digital Marketplace search function,\n- apply objective, non-discriminatory filters aligned to the requirement, and\n- award the contract to the service(s) that best meet the Authority\u0027s needs from the list of available services returned.\nTo meet this requirement, the Authority conducted a search on the Digital Marketplace under G-Cloud 14 Lot 2 and 3, using objective filters based on the mandatory technical, functional, security and delivery requirements of the project. These filters were aligned to the Authority\u0027s specification and applied consistently in accordance with PCR 2015 Regulation 18 (principles of equal treatment, transparency and proportionality).\nThe search returned only one supplier (Hyde Park Solutions) offering a service that met all mandatory criteria. No other services listed under the framework met the requirement as defined. Under the G-Cloud framework rules, where only one service meets the requirement, the Authority is permitted to directly award to that supplier, as there are no alternative services capable of satisfying the need and therefore no competition to reopen.\nFurther competition is neither required nor permitted under the framework where only a single service is identified as capable of meeting the Authority\u0027s needs. A mini-competition would not achieve any additional value and would be inconsistent with the framework calling-off procedures set out under Reg. 33(8)(a).\nAccordingly, the direct award is:\n- lawful under PCR 2015, specifically Regs. 18 and 33(8),\n- compliant with the G-Cloud 14 Buyer\u0027s Guide and framework rules, and \n- transparent and proportionate, given that the Authority relied on objective search criteria and the Digital Marketplace\u0027s complete list of framework services.\nFor these reasons, the Authority considers that the direct award is fully justified and compliant with the applicable procurement regulations and framework requirements.",
