## Description
This procurement is for the provision of a UK capability for import, export, customs compliance, and trade control compliance as part of the F-35 Lightning II Global Asset Management (GAM) solution. 
Specifically, Defence Equipment & Support (DE&S) has a requirement for an industry-operated Public Customs Bonded Warehouse located at Royal Air Force Marham, Norfolk, to hold materiel for F-35 Lightning II in customs suspension. 
The Customs Bonded Warehouse (CBW) workstream requires the Contractor to hold a CBW authorisation for a warehouse at RAF Marham under the supplier’s own Economic Operator Registration Identity (EORI), duty management and record-keeping for the inventory, coordination with nominated depositors and removers and coordination with existing contractors providing physical warehouse management. 
The Import/Export workstream requires the Contractor to act as the declarant for customs movements of F-35 materiel into, out of, and within the UK for the UK MOD. In addition to import/export per se (i.e. where the goods cross the geographical UK border) this workstream includes in its scope internal customs procedures such as Inward Processing, discharge to aircraft, Military End Use. This workstream also requires the Contractor (as the Declarant) to manage compliance with relevant UK and international export controls and trade compliance regimes. 
It is proposed to place Single Source Contract with Lockheed Martin UK Aeronautics using the negotiated procedure without prior publication of a contract notice which is allowable under DSPCR 2011Section 16(a)(ii) when, for technical reasons the contract may be awarded only to a particular economic operator.
