| Procurement Method: | Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition |
| Method Rationale: | The contract was awarded under Regulation 32(2)(c) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, as, for reasons of extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable by Ofwat, the time limits for the open or restricted procedures or competitive procedures with negotiation could not be complied with. Prior to making the direct award, Ofwat carried out a non‑regulated competition involving seven potential suppliers. Following that process, and having regard to the urgency of appointing an independent monitor, Ofwat proceeded to negotiate directly with L.E.K. Consulting LLP and make a direct award. |
