Why this procedure was chosen
The Lethality & Protect/Gunnery Systems & Munitions Team, part of the UK Ministry of Defence (the Authority) intends to award a contract for a period of five years to Babcock-Devonport Royal Dockyard Limited (Babcock DRDL) for Contracting for Availability (CfA) services for the Phalanx – Close In Weapons Systems (CIWS). The estimated total contract value is £60M. In accordance with Section 2 of the Procurement Act 2023 this procurement is governed by the Procurement Act 2023. It is considered that this contract can be awarded under Section 41 of the Procurement Act 2023 because the direct award justification specified in paragraph 6 of Schedule 5 applies, in that, due to an absence of competition for technical reasons, only a particular supplier, Babcock DRDL, have the necessary technical expertise, knowledge and capability to deliver the requirement at a standard required. Babcock DRDL is the sole licence holder able to deliver the requirement and due to interoperability and capability risks there are no reasonable alternatives available.
