Description

Issuing a VTN to enable a 10 day stand still period for the award of the kiln replacement to Sibor Ltd.

The Defence Science & Technology Laboratory (DSTL),
part of the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) intends to
award a contract with a total estimated value of
£450,640.9 (including VAT) to SiBOR Ltd for the supply,
installation and commissioning of a Ciroldi RP8 rotary
kiln.
In accordance with the provisions of The Public
Procurement (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations
2020 SI No. 2020/1319, this procurement falls to be
regulated under the provisions of the Public Contracts
Regulations 2015 as amended (in particular by SI
2020/1319). 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 this contract without
Prior Publication of a Contract Notice in the UK enotification service (in accordance with the relevant
legislation) is lawful in accordance with Regulation
32(2)(b)(ii) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 for
technical reasons.

The incinerator facility activities are governed by a permit
issued by the Environment Agency (EA).
The rotary kiln is one of the main burners for the
Incinerator, manufactured by Ciroldi SPA. SiBOR Limited
the only company authorised by Ciroldi SPA in the UK for
the installation, support and maintenance of the rotary
kiln.

Use of alternative kilns or methods of incineration is not
feasible, as it would require extensive modification to the
current incinerator facility. As a new Incinerator facility is
being planned, such modification is unacceptable.
Furthermore, any changes to the way waste is incinerated
at the facility would require a change to the EA permit,
necessitating extended down-time whilst being assessed.
