Procedure rationaleThe DE&S Air Domain Safety & Engineering Team, part of the UK Ministry of Defence, intends to award a contract to NCC Group for the Air Environment Safety Assessment Tool on-going Technical Support for existing licenses, technical support and any user training. The Contract will be for a duration of three years. The intended Contract start date will be 31st March 2022. It is considered that this Contract can be placed using the negotiated procedure without prior publication of a contract notice pursuant to the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 for technical reasons. This is on the basis that: (a) NCC Group are the only supplier able to provide software that meets all the MoD’s requirements, including its technical and airworthiness safety requirements; to utilize 3rd party software, software support and training would create significant and unacceptable risk to Air Safety across multiple Aircraft Platforms resulting in a loss of airworthiness and a substantial and unacceptable reduction in the operability of all the affected aircraft platforms (b) only NCC Group, as the Original Equipment Manufacturer of the Software, associated software support and training, have the necessary skills, experience and knowledge to provide the required technical support and user training and (c) only NCC Group have access to the necessary technical data, as they own the background IP to the software’s generic modules and source code required to provide the technical support.
