Section IV: Procedure
IV.1)Type of procedure
IV.1.1)Type of procedureAward of a contract without prior publication of a contract notice in the Official Journal of the European Union (in the cases listed in Section 2 of Annex D1)
Justification for the award of the contract without prior publication of a contract notice in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU):
Directive 2004/18/EC
1) Justification for the choice of the negotiated procedure without prior publication of a contract notice in the OJEU in accordance with Directive 2004/18/EC
Extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable by the contracting authority and in accordance with the strict conditions stated in the Directive.
Following notice to terminate the newly concluded security contract EEAS-268-DELKENN-FWC-SER-2015 by the contractor who deemed it untenable due to a significant error they made in pricing, the contracting authority was compelled to establish a new contract as a matter of urgency. The termination was unforeseen as the contractor was only 6 months into the contract. Citing impending financial loss as significant, the contractor would not extend the contract further to enable us to launch a new tender within the time limits laid down in the procedure. Thus based on extreme urgency to ensure security of staff and installations, the contracting authority opted to launch a tender on the basis of a negotiated procedure without prior publication of a contract notice to establish a contract for 1 year pending relaunch of a restricted tender based on the standard procedure to establish a new framework contract. The 4 economic operators invited to tender were those that had passed the selection stage of the previous tender EEAS-268-DELKENN-SER-FWC. The original terms specified in the previous call for tender have not been substantially altered.
