Section IV: Procedure
IV.1) Description
IV.1.1) Type of procedure
Award of a contract without prior publication of a call for competition
Justification for selected award procedure:
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
In addition to the savings achieved from making the purchase from Nuix Technology (UK) Limited, a technical case can be made in line with Regulations 33 (1) (b) (ii) and (iii) of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015, as Nuix Technology (UK) Limited is the sole developer of the software therefore the owner of the intellectual property rights (IPR) and they have not licensed any other company to provide licensing or support for this product. Consequently there are no other providers of the software and therefore, in order for Police Scotland to purchase licences, a contract should be awarded to Nuix Technology (UK) Limited.
