They could include, for instance, a near technical impossibility for another economic operator to achieve the required performance, or the necessity to use specific know-how, tools or means which only one economic operator has at its disposal. Technical reasons may also derive from specific interoperability requirements which must be fulfilled in order to ensure the functioning of the works, supplies or services to be procured.\nAs the Council cannot leave schools uninsured this direct award would fall under this section as currently there is only one economic operator it has at its disposal who can deliver the services to our requirements.",
