Description of the economic or technical reasons preventing a change of contractor: •Continuity of service without a changeover of contractors and associated ‘bedding in’ period •Retention of knowledge that has built up over the term of contract so far. •Start-up costs not required for current supplier •Allows time for development of future policies. •The above will make it clearer how to develop a precise scope for a new open competition with the possibility of a new contract commencing in April 2017.
