Direct Award Sample Clauses
A Direct Award clause allows a contracting party to award a contract to a supplier without conducting a competitive tender process. Typically, this clause outlines the specific circumstances under which a direct award is permissible, such as when only one supplier is capable of providing the required goods or services, or in cases of urgency. Its core practical function is to streamline procurement by enabling faster decision-making and contract execution when competition is impractical or unnecessary, thereby reducing administrative delays.
