Legal Justification

The Trust has been trailing HOCL for at least the last 12 months, which at the time was a novel good/service for the NHS. There is very little competition at the time and for technical reasons due to the absence of competition, HOCL Health were approached. Existing supplier suppled the original goods and wishes to buy additional machines, with the same compatibility with existing provisions. Any incompatibility of new goods/services may result in redesign and modification which may result in significant costs to the organisation.
