Description

Single Source Procurement for Provision of Design Organisation Post Design Services (PDS) services from Airbus Defence and Space SAU (SPAIN). Contracted in Euros.

Total Quantity or Scope

Voyager Delivery Team (DT), as part of the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD), intends to award a contract to Airbus Defence and Space SAU for provision of Voyager Post Design Services (PDS) from April 2022 for a 3 (three) year period. The anticipated maximum value for the contract is £3.4M In accordance with regulation 4 of The Defence and Security Public Contracts (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (SI 2019/697) this procurement falls to be regulated under the provisions of the Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011 as amended (in particular by SI 2019/697 and SI 2020/1450). Prior publication of a contract notice in the Official Journal of the European Union is no longer appropriate. 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 due to technical reasons. This is because MOD are required to comply with Military Aviation Authority (MAA) regulations which mandate, under Design Organisation Airworthiness Responsibilities RA1014, 1015(1)14b and MRP 5000 Series Regulatory Articles (RA), to establish and maintain a contractual relationship with the appointed Air System Design Organisation to manage the overall design or through life configuration. The PDS contract must therefore be with the appointed Design Organisation, which is Airbus Defence and Space SAU.
