A questionnaire was published to those suppliers who noted an interest on 24 February 2020. Two suppliers responded to the request for completion of a market engagement questionnaire, one, the incumbent supplier and manufacturer of the building and energy management system Honeywell Control Systems Limited and one other who noted they were unable to respond to the questionnaire as they could not provide responses to specific questions around the support of the EBI product and the incumbent would be the only supplier able to respond. Following receipt of the questionnaire it was deemed that the appropriate route to market for this requirement was the use of the negotiated procedure without prior publication in accordance with The Public Contract (Scotland) Regulations 2015 (PCSR 2015), Regulation 33 (1)(b)(ii); 33.—(1) A contracting authority may award a public contract following negotiated procedure without prior publication of a contract notice or prior information notice in any of the following cases— b)where the works, supplies or services can be supplied only by a particular economic operator for any of the following reasons— (ii)competition is absent for technical reasons;
