    "procurementMethodRationale": "HMRC is in the process of migrating and replacing certain existing applications from existing data centres. As an interim measure, the incumbent provider is required to keep essential services functioning on these applications whilst this migration takes place. The services procured via this contract concern those data centre services and applications pending such migration and or replacement and associated project services.\nRegulation 32(2)(b)(ii) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (\"PCR\") provides that a contracting authority may award a public contract without prior publication of a Contract Notice where the services can be supplied only by a particular economic operator where competition is absent for technical reasons.\nRegulation 32(2)(b)(iii) of the PCR provides likewise, in order to protect exclusive rights, including intellectual property rights. Both of these grounds apply to the award of this contract to Fujitsu Services Ltd (the \"Contractor\") for the reasons explained below.\nA change to a different contractor cannot be made for these services because the HMRC applications concerned are hosted and/or operated by the Contractor on the Contractor\u0027s infrastructure in the Contractor\u0027s data centres with connectivity provided by the Contractor. It would not be possible for another contractor to take over or provide these services using the original Contractor\u0027s infrastructure and hosting before they are migrated to HMRC\u0027s new replacement infrastructure.\nAlso, some of the services required, before the move is complete, are built with and or use the Contractor\u0027s unique intellectual property rights and this could not be supplied by a third party.",
