Source:	Find a Tender Service (FTS)
Notice Type:	Award notice
Buyer:	Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service
Main Category:	Goods
Procurement Method:	Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition
Method Rationale:	As per to Regulation 33 (1)(b)(ii), competition is absent for technical reasons as no reasonable alternative or substitute exists and the absence of competition is not the result of an artificial narrowing down of the parameters of the procurement. LexisNexis holds a de-facto monopoly as the primary supplier of unique products (textbooks, law reports, journals and loose-leaf titles) on niche areas of law and is exclusively covering particular commonwealth jurisdictions (de-facto monopoly). Despite attempts to explore alternatives through intermediaries, LexisNexis remains the singular entity capable of offering a more favourable agreement. The distinctive nature of their role limits the feasibility of open competition. Opting for a Negotiated Procedure without Prior Publication allows SCTS to engage directly with LexisNexis, facilitating negotiations for a long-term contract.
