    "description": "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 in accordance with Regulation 16(1)(a)(ii) of the Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations 2011 for Technical Reasons. SAAB AB currently supply the Soldier Systems to other nations and there is a requirement for interoperability, integration with existing infrastructure and the ability to train with other Nations. Additionally, when not in use the systems will supplement existing holdings. SAAB AB are the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and Design Authority (DA) for the Soldier Systems. They retain the proprietary technical data, source code and design drawings applicable to the capability and to maintain the required availability. Other economic operators are unable to provide new equipment or support, repair and upgrade services without access to this information/data. For these technical reasons and the necessity to use specific know-how and expertise in order to perform the contract, which is held only by SAAB AB, the contract may only be awarded to SAAB.",

It simulates and records the effects of weapon engagements on vehicles and enables realistic and challenging training. The Authority has a requirement for 1000 ILT-D Soldier Systems for delivery of training overseas as well as exercise management and support.",

When not in use these systems will supplement the existing c2500 systems already used for training worldwide. The anticipated value of this requirement is PS40,000,000. The intent is to place this activity as a Contract Amendment to Contract TSSP/143 (ILT-D), uplifting the original Contract value from PS141,820,283 to an estimated PS181,000,000. The requirement will align with the ILT-D Contract (expiry March 2027 with 3 x 1 year options to extend) The Cyber Risk Profile is assessed as moderate.",
