Legal Justification

The decision to make a single source award to the National Land Information Service (NLIS) has been made in accordance with the provisions of the Procurement Act 2023, as competition is absent for technical and legal reasons. NLIS is the only organisation that holds the government-approved licence required to provide fully integrated digital access to the relevant land and property information services. This exclusive licensing arrangement means that no alternative supplier is able to deliver an equivalent end-to-end digitally integrated solution that meets the Authority's operational and technical requirements. As a government-approved licensee, NLIS has exclusive rights to facilitate this level of digital integration. Consequently, there is no reasonable substitute available in the market that can provide the same capability without significant compromise to service delivery or requiring a fundamentally different operating model. The Authority has therefore concluded that a competitive procurement process would not deliver additional value or result in a viable alternative supplier. A single source award to NLIS is considered necessary, proportionate, and compliant with the Procurement Act 2023, as it represents the only supplier capable of meeting the Authority's specified requirements.
