Procurement Information

It is considered that this contract can be placed with Fujitsu using the negotiated procedure without prior publication pursuant to Article 28(1)(e) of Directive 2009/81/EC (Regulations 16 (1)(a)(ii) of the Defence and Security Public Contract Regulations 2011). This is for the following Technical Reasons: BAES are an approved design organisation under the Military Aviation Authority's Design Approved Organisation Scheme and within that approval are listed as Senior Design staff with approval to certify Design Certificates for Typhoon software and Hardware. The Military Aviation Authority (MAA) requires that this DAOS approved organisation has extensive Typhoon Engineering Support Subsystem design experience and this currently cannot be achieved outside of the BAES environment in the case of UK Engineering Support Subsystem, ESS. BAES as the Design Authority determine the type and specification of the hardware we require, which is signed off by the Design Authorities safety and Airworthiness team. The support contract can only be placed with Fujitsu, as Fujitsu is the only company authorised by BAES to supply DA/SDR approved equipment and spares support to assure the validity of the design and use criteria detailed in the Declaration of Design and Performance, DDP, which covers the safety and airworthiness of the product and therefore the platform.In addition, Fujitsu are the Manufacturer and Supplier of the hardware used at UK Main Operating Bases, MOBs and therefore are the only party with the required Subject Matter Experts, SMEs able to sustain integrity of the systems. Furthermore Fujitsu is the only supplier possessing the specific know-how required to support the equipment and provide airworthiness and safety with a through-life support contract, with spares and specific knowledgeable engineers.
