Description

The Ministry of Defence (MOD) has entered into a services contract with C Data Services Ltd for the maintenance and support of a portfolio of bespoke business system management software applications in support of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary (RFA), such contract to commence on 1st December 2024 for a duration of 2 years with an option to extend the contract for 1 additional year.

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 (DSPCR) as amended (in particular by SI2019/697 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 this contract without prior publication of a contract notice in the UK e-notification service (as required by the relevant legislation) is lawful in accordance with regulation 16(1)(a)(ii) of the DSPCR for technical reasons. This is because the business
system management software applications were developed for the MOD as bespoke applications by C Data Services Limited, which is the only supplier with access to the necessary software code and other technical data relating to the software applications and having the specialist know-how necessary to perform the services, which are required to enable the continuing operation of the business systems
using these software applications.
