Service contract

Procedure type

Restricted procedure (above threshold)

A two-stage procedure, where the first stage is used to select suppliers, who are then invited to bid in the second stage.

This procedure can be used for procurements above the relevant contract value threshold.

This is an accelerated procedure.

Justification

The Accelerated Restricted Procedure was used on this occasion to ensure operational outputs would still be achieved. These outputs include provision of training, including to new joiners to the Royal Navy; diving operations; and inshore survey operations. Inability to provide proactive and reactive maintenance to the vessels providing these outputs, which would have occurred by not using this
procedure, would have resulted in rapid withdrawal from service and therefore to follow the usual time limits would have had a genuine adverse effect on our ability to maintain operational outputs. In order to ensure the prospective contract was only bound to the essential scope urgently required, the contract was to be let for a period of two years, with a view that longer term support to this fleet would be factored into a future competitive procurement to be let by 31 Mar 26.
