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 services can be provided only by a particular economic operator for the following reason: absence of competition for technical reasons
Explanation
This service is categorised by the Regulations as a 'Social and Other Specific Service'.
Self-Directed Support is the method of arranging support for some of the Council's most vulnerable groups (‘Service Users’).
Selection of a service provider is the choice of the service user, not the authority.
Service users are in control of their support budgets. The overriding factor is maintaining relationships and providing continuity of support.
The current service providers who are proposed in the notice have over many years built relationships with the existing group of individual service users. In previous years, there are low levels of existing services users seeking the option to switch provider, removing competition.
