Why no open competition: The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator due to absence of competition for technical reasons
Published justification: This requirement has been placed as a Call-Off Contract via the Direct Award procedure, through a pre-existing CCS Framework Agreement, which was competed previously.
Therefore, this requirement does not have to be competed separately outside of the Framework agreement.

Publisher note: This requirement has been awarded through RM 6187 Lot 3 – Complex and Transformation using the Direct Award procedure. This approach is necessary due to only one supplier having been identified as capable of meeting the requirement of undertaking a deep-dive review of ongoing work programmes and developing strategic priorities and objectives. The successful supplier is required to possess an in-depth knowledge of the Army Portfolio, and extant DE&S, Head Office and Front Line Command Management Information due to the potential impact upon the delivery of DE&S’ strategic aims. The successful supplier is also required to have prior experience of providing this service to the MOD and Front Line Command, and in identifying potential business risks/issues specific to the Defence sector. Therefore, KPMG were identified as the only supplier present within the Management Consultancy Framework Three (MCF3) Lot 3 capable of fulfilling the requirement, meaning that only the Direct Award approach was appropriate in this situation.
