Description

The Vehicle Demonstration & Manufacture delivery team, is part of the Ministry of Defence (MOD), and is seeking to place a single source contract with MS Instruments (MSI) Ltd for the maintenance and repair of Range Instrumentation (RI), including optical velocity measuring systems, metrology sensors and ruggedized processors, not exceeding the value of £40,000.

The Range Instrumentation in question was procured as an off-the-shelf item through Contract MATT/SV/003 from the aforementioned supplier. The MoD considers that the Repair and Maintenance of Range Instrumentation Contract can be awarded under Regulation 16(1)(a)(ii) DSPCR 2011 for technical reasons. MSI Ltd are the Design Authority (DA) and Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of the RI and have extensive in depth knowledge and technical know-how of the design, interface and operation of the RI system. MSI Ltd have the required access to the necessary software and unique calibration equipment to carry out the requirements of the Contract.
