Ground given for limiting competition
The buyer’s own stated reason for awarding without open competition, as published. Their assertion, not a finding.
The LDCs at Doncaster, Hinksey, Hoo Junction, Toton and Westbury, are owned by DB Cargo UK and therefore cannot be included in the competitive flexible procedure for the Operation of Rail Haulage Services which is running concurrently to this Direct Award. The LDCs at these locations are required to ensure the successful operation of Network Rail's Rail Haulage Services.
