Article R2122-7 of the French Public procurement code

The purchaser may award a works or service contract without prior advertising or competitive tendering for the purpose of providing services similar to those entrusted to the holder of a previous contract awarded after competitive tendering. The first contract must have indicated the possibility of using this procedure to carry out similar services. The call for competition must also have taken into account the total amount envisaged, including that of the new works or services.
When such a contract is awarded by a contracting authority, the period during which new contracts may be concluded may not exceed three years from the notification of the initial contract.

Article R2122-7


L’acheteur peut passer un marché de travaux ou de services sans publicité ni mise en concurrence préalables ayant pour objet la réalisation de prestations similaires à celles qui ont été confiées au titulaire d’un marché précédent passé après mise en concurrence. Le premier marché doit avoir indiqué la possibilité de recourir à cette procédure pour la réalisation de prestations similaires. Sa mise en concurrence doit également avoir pris en compte le montant total envisagé, y compris celui des nouveaux travaux ou services.
Lorsqu’un tel marché est passé par un pouvoir adjudicateur, la durée pendant laquelle les nouveaux marchés peuvent être conclus ne peut dépasser trois ans à compter de la notification du marché initial.
