Article L3121-2 of the French Public procurement code

Notwithstanding the provisions of article L. 3121-1, the concession-granting authority may award a concession contract without prior advertising or competitive tendering in the cases set by decree in the Conseil d’Etat, when, due in particular to the existence of an unsuccessful initial procedure or a particular urgency, compliance with such a procedure is unnecessary or impossible or manifestly contrary to the interests of the concession-granting authority.
