Why no open competition

The products involved are manufactured purely for the purpose of research, experiment, study or development under the conditions stated in the directive; The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator due to absence of competition for technical reasons

Published justification

The International Guns, Missiles and Rockets Project Team, part of the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD) intends to award a 16-month contract to Leonardo MW Ltd for In-Service Support (ISS) solution for the Gun System Automation Mk8 (GSA8), Gun-Fire Control System fitted to T23 Frigates from February 2023.

In accordance with regulation 4 of The Defence and Security Public Contracts (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (SI 2019/697) this procurement falls to be regulated under the provisions of the Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011 as amended (in particular by SI 2019/697 and SI 2020/1450). Prior publication of a contract notice in the Official Journal of the European Union is no longer appropriate. It is considered that the award of the contract without prior publication of a contract notice in the UK e-notification service is lawful under Regulation 16 (1) (a)(ii) of the Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011. This is for technical reasons because following a call for competition, only one response to the contract notice (Notice reference: 2022/S 000-018057) was received from Leonardo MW Ltd. In absence of interests from other suppliers, Leonardo MW Ltd. is currently the only supplier with sufficient capability to deliver this requirement’.
