listName="direct-award-justification">exclusive</cbc:ProcessReasonCode><cbc:ProcessReason languageID="DEU">Die Markterkundungen der KfW haben ergeben, dass der Auftrag nur von einem bestimmten Wirtschaftsteilnehmer ausgeführt werden kann, da aus technischen und rechtlichen Gründen kein Wettbewerb um die benötigten Analysteninformationen zu einer umfassenden Bandbreite von Technologiethemen (u.a. Infrastruktur und Organisation, Sicherheit, Applikationen sowie Data und Analytics) vorhanden ist.

Die Gartner Forschungsdatenbank für Informationstechnologie verfügt hier nach den Recherchen der KfW über eine am Markt einzigartige Datengrundlage, einzigartige Abstimmungsmöglichkeiten mit Analysten und einzigartige Vernetzungsmöglichkeiten.  Die KfW benötigt diese Informationsquellen, um ohne Informationsdefizite und auf Augenhöhe mit Akteuren aus dem IT-Bereich agieren zu können. Neben den in dieser Breite nur bei Gartner vorhandenen Informations- und Vernetzungsangeboten kommt auch zum Tragen, dass viele von der KfW benötigten Forschungsinhalte nur auf der Gartner Forschungsdatenbank für Informationstechnologie verfügbar sind und aufgrund von Schutzrechten durch keine anderen Anbieter vermarktet werden dürfen.
Die genannten Gründe ergeben jeweils für sich genommen und erst Recht in ihrer Kombination ein rechtliches und technisches Alleinstellungsmerkmal im Sinne der § 14 Abs. 4 Nr. 2 Buchst. a) und b) VgV.</cbc:ProcessReason></cac:ProcessJustification></cac:TenderingProcess><cac:ProcurementProject><cbc:Name languageID="DEU">Zugänge auf die Gartner Forschungsdatenbank für Informationstechnologie</cbc:Name><cbc:Description languageID="DEU">Die KfW IT hat mehrere Zugänge zur Nutzung der umfassenden Informationsdienste von Gartner beschafft.
