Legal Justification

The International Guns, Missiles and Rockets Project Team, part of the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD) intends to award a contract of up to five years (a three year initial term plus two option years) to Devonport Royal Dockyard Limited (DRDL) for Contracting for Availability services for the Phalanx – Close In Weapons Systems (CIWS) from February 2023 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 under Regulation 16 (1) (a)(ii) of the Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011. This is for technical reasons because only DRDL have the specific know-how, tools and means needed to meet the MOD’s In Service Support requirement concerning this complex military weapon system. In addition, DRDL are the sole licensed European operator of the Phalanx CIWS under a licensing agreement in place with Raytheon Missiles and Defence (RMD) who are the original equipment manufacturer.
