It is considered that the award of the contract without prior publication of a contract notice in the UK e-notification service is lawful in accordance with Regulation 16(1)(a)(ii) of the Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011 for Technical Reasons. \nSAAB AB are the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and Design Authority (DA) for ILT-D. They retain the proprietary technical data, source code and design drawings applicable to the capability and to maintain the required availability. Other economic operators are unable to provide support, repair and upgrade services for ILT-D without access to this information/data. For these technical reasons and the necessity to use specific know-how and expertise in order to perform the PDS contract, which is held only by SAAB AB, the contract may only be awarded to SAAB.",
