As it is an applicable Defence & Security contract then the direct award justification can be applied subject to this supplier not being Excluded. The supplier identified is Montvieux Limited which is NOT an excluded supplier.

Based on the statement of requirements of this contract, the direct award justification outlined above applies and there is a compliant mechanism to award this contract. The services outlined are deemed as novel as this is a first time development not just for the UK but also for NATO. Additionally the purpose of this work is to test the viability of those services and it still sits firmly within experimentation. Should this project reach maturity and no longer be in experimental stage the approach will be reviewed.
