Legal Justification
This contract was awarded following a Further Competition conducted under the Crown Commercial Service RM6098 Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS). Under Regulation 34 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, Dynamic Purchasing Systems are fully compliant procurement procedures, and all required advertising was completed when the DPS was originally established. Individual call-offs under a DPS do not require a separate contract notice in Find a Tender or the OJEU prior to award. Therefore, the award of this contract without a prior publication of a call‑for‑competition notice is lawful and compliant
