ANNEX D

   1. Justification for the choice of the negotiated procedure without prior publication of a call for competition in accordance with Article 32 of Directive 2014/24/EU

      No tenders or no suitable tenders/requests to participate in response to: Not Provided

            
      
      The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator for the following reason: absence of competition for technical reasons

      Extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable for the contracting authority and in accordance with the strict conditions stated in the directive: No

      Additional deliveries by the original supplier ordered under the strict conditions stated in the directive: No

      New works/services, constituting a repetition of existing works/services and ordered in accordance with the strict conditions stated in the directive: No
            Service contract to be awarded to the winner or one of winners under the rules of a design contest: No
      

      Purchase of supplies or services on particularly advantageous terms: No


   3. Explanation
          The contract is being awarded via a direct call-off from a compliant framework . The framework was established through a competitive procedure in accordance with PCR 2015 and Directive 2014/24/EU. The supplier selected is the first-ranked supplier, and the required services are covered under the framework terms. As the framework has already been competitively procured, no further publication in the Official Journal of the European Union was required. This approach ensures value for money, compliance with procurement regulations, and allows timely mobilisation of the services without repeating a full tender process. The award is therefore lawful under Article 32 of Directive 2014/24/EU, where the contract can be awarded without prior publication due to absence of competition for technical reasons within the established framework.
