Why no open competition

No tenders or no suitable tenders/requests to participate in response to negotiated procedure with prior publication of a contract notice; 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 C- 17 Delivery Team, part of the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD) (the Authority), has a requirement for in-service support, maintenance services, periodical inspections, minor repairs, base overhaul and installation of replacement sub-assemblies in relation to the UK C-17 Life Raft capability. The Authority intends to award a new contract to renew the exiting provision for the period: 1 September 2022 to 31st March 2027 (with options to extend by an additional 5 (five) years) at an approximate value of £0.399m (Inclusive of VAT) to Safran Aerosystems Services UK Limited (Safran UK).

It is considered that this contract can be placed on a single source basis (below UK Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011 (DSPCR 2011) threshold) without prior publication of a contract notice. Safran UK are the sole European based licensee of the C-17 life rafts and the proprietary original equipment manufacturer. Accordingly, Safran UK is the only economic operator, which has the required technical knowledge, know-how and experience to undertake and discharge the contractor's obligations to maintain, inspect, repair and overhaul the safety critical C-17 Life Rafts.
