Other Information

The following conditions are met in relation to the public contract-(a) due to an absence of competition for technical reasons, only a particular supplier can supply the goods, services or works required, and (b)there are no reasonable alternatives to those goods, services or works." This is because the 3 suppliers have their equipment already installed in homes, and so the requirement would need to be compatible with what is already in place in order to work and fulfil need. (e.g. if a Telealarm piece of equipment is in situ and it needs something else to go alongside, it will have to be Telealarm to work). ** PREVIEW NOTICE, please check Find a Tender for full details. **
