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
CPI require a number of enzymes to use as part of its response to Covid-19 vaccine project. The Public Contract Regulations 2015 state in regulation 32.2) The negotiated procedure without prior publication may be used for public works contracts, public supply contracts and public service contracts in any of the following cases: (b) where the works, supplies or services can be supplied only by a particular economic operator for any of the following reasons: (ii) competition is absent for technical reasons. The technical transfer of the current manufacturing process CPI are receiving is based upon use of pre-specified material. Due to operating under GMP conditions, we are therefore restricted to the same supplier to ensure that we do not deviate from their existing process.
