Ground given for limiting competition

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

Urgency: The previous similar procurement procedure has been suspended on duly justified grounds, notwithstanding that the procurement was commenced sufficiently in advance and carefully prepared, including of a market consultation phase. Considering the critical timetable associated with the procurement, restarting the process under ordinary procedural time limits would result in delays that are incompatible with the operational needs of the Contracting Entity. Such delays would not only affect the procurement itself but would also postpone a number of dependent activities and projects, creating a cumulative and disproportionate impact across the Contracting Entity’s operations.
