The authority to determine whether a
direct/limited submission sourcing circumstance exists and to
approve a direct/limited submission sourcing process cannot be
delegated by those authorised to make such decisions in the
Instruction to any other officers.
Approval cannot be granted
retrospectively.

of Agency's discretion, can choose to either seek quotations
