Ground given for limiting competition

The buyer’s own stated reason for awarding without open competition, as published. Their assertion, not a finding.

This is limited grant funding provided to NCC and this needs to be spent by the end of the financial year. There is a lead time for the theatre seating of 3 months, therefore no time to carry out a competitive tender process for this. This excepted contract is approved and NCC will award to Kirwin & Simpson Ltd utilising 2.2.9 of the excepted contract categories.
