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 (as required by the relevant legislation) is lawful in accordance with regulation 32(b)(ii) and 32(5)(b) of the PCR 2015 because competition is absent both for technical reasons and for reasons relating to the additional supply of goods. The Authority considers that Motek Medical BV (through its UK distributor) is the only company in the world that can meet the Authority's specified and reasonable technical upgrade requirements of providing the 3D Virtual Reality environment. In addition the upgrade, integration and subsequent maintenance requirements require access to specific know-how, tools and information which only MOTEK (through its UK distributor) has at its disposal to ensure specific interoperability requirements which must be fulfilled to ensure the continued functioning of the existing CAREN system. In addition, where this upgrade requires a partial replacement of existing goods a change of supplier would result in disproportionate technical difficulties in operation and maintenance of the existing supplies or installation." }, "awards": [ { "id": "032779-2024-709389451-1", "relatedLots": [ "1" ], "status": "active", "suppliers": [ { "id": "GB-COH-03051047", "name": "BRIGHTEDGE LIMITED T/A Summit Medical and Scientific" } ] }, { "id": "011724-2025-709389451-1", "relatedLots": [ "1" ], "title": "The Provision of A Computer Assisted Rehabilitation Environment High End (CAREN HE) System Upgrade, Warranty Extension, Servicing, Maintenance and Repair", "status": "active", "suppliers": [ { "id": "GB-FTS-142212", "name": "BRIGHTEDGE LIMITED T/A Summit Medical and Scientific" } ] } ], "parties": [ { "id": "GB-FTS-79854", "name": "MINISTRY OF DEFENCE", "identifier": { "legalName": "MINISTRY OF DEFENCE", "noIdentifierRationale": "notOnAnyRegister" }, "address": { "streetAddress": "MAIN BUILDING WHITEHALL", "locality": "LONDON", "region": "UKI32", "postalCode": "SW1A2HB", "countryName": "United Kingdom" }, "contactPoint": { "name": "Katie Boorer", "telephone": "+44 3001661498", "email": "katie.boorer100@mod.gov.uk" }, "roles": [ "buyer" ], "details": { "url": "http://www.gov.uk", "classifications": [ { "scheme": "TED_CA_TYPE", "id": "MINISTRY", "description": "Ministry or any other national or federal authority, including their regional or local subdivisions" }, { "scheme": "COFOG", "id": "02", "description": "Defence" } ] } }, { "id": "GB-COH-03051047", "name": "BRIGHTEDGE LIMITED T/A Summit Medical and Scientific", "identifier": { "legalName": "BRIGHTEDGE LIMITED T/A Summit Medical and Scientific", "id": "03051047", "scheme": "GB-COH" }, "address": { "locality": "Bookham", "region": "UKJ2", "countryName": "United Kingdom" }, "roles": [ "supplier" ], "details": { "scale": "sme" } }, { "id": "GB-FTS-6814", "name": "Ministry of Defence", "identifier": { "legalName": "Ministry of Defence" }, "address": { "locality": "London", "countryName": "United Kingdom" }, "roles": [ "reviewBody" ] }, { "id": "GB-FTS-36721", "name": "Ministry of Defence", "identifier": { "legalName": "Ministry of Defence" }, "address": { "streetAddress": "DMS Whittington", "locality": "Lichfield", "region": "UK", "postalCode": "WS14 9PY", "countryName": "United Kingdom" }, "contactPoint": { "name": "Kelvin Edwards", "email": "kelvin.edwards109@mod.gov.uk" }, "roles": [ "buyer", "reviewBody" ], "details": { "url": "http://www.contracts.mod.uk", "classifications": [ { "scheme": "TED_CA_TYPE", "id": "MINISTRY", "description": "Ministry or any other national or federal authority, including their regional or local subdivisions" }, { "scheme": "COFOG", "id": "02", "description": "Defence" } ] } }, { "id": "GB-FTS-142212", "name": "BRIGHTEDGE LIMITED T/A Summit Medical and Scientific", "identifier": { "legalName": "BRIGHTEDGE LIMITED T/A Summit Medical and Scientific" }, "address": { "streetAddress": "12 Swanns Meadow", "locality": "Bookham", "region": "UK", "postalCode": "KT23 4JX", "countryName": "United Kingdom" }, "roles": [ "supplier" ], "details": { "scale": "sme" } } ], "buyer": { "id": "GB-FTS-36721", "name": "Ministry of Defence" }, "contracts": [ { "id": "032779-2024-709389451-1", "awardID": "032779-2024-709389451-1", "status": "active", "value": { "amount": 500000, "currency": "GBP" }, "dateSigned": "2024-10-11T00:00:00+01:00" }, { "id": "011724-2025-709389451-1", "awardID": "011724-2025-709389451-1", "title": "The Provision of A Computer Assisted Rehabilitation Environment High End (CAREN HE) System Upgrade, Warranty Extension, Servicing, Maintenance and Repair", "status": "active", "value": { "amount": 496925, "currency": "GBP" }, "dateSigned": "2025-03-21T00:00:00Z" } ], "language": "en", "bids": { "statistics": [ { "id": "3", "measure": "bids", "relatedLot": "1", "value": 1 }, { "id": "4", "measure": "electronicBids", "relatedLot": "1", "value": 1 } ] } }
