## Summary

The Ministry of Defence has awarded a contract for the repair and maintenance services of military electronic systems to Penny & Giles Controls Limited. The contract, titled "702534451- Penny & Giles MPFR Support," was awarded following a limited procurement process without the publication of a contract notice. The contract, valued at £1,384,000, was signed on 10th April 2023. The procurement took place in Christchurch, Dorset, within the services category of the defense industry.

This specific tender offers a business opportunity for companies with expertise in providing repair and maintenance services for military electronic systems. As the contract was awarded through a negotiated procedure, only Penny & Giles Holdings had the manufacturing information and technical expertise required to meet the Ministry of Defence's strict airworthiness standards. Businesses with similar capabilities and technical expertise would be well-suited to compete in such specialized procurement processes within the defense sector.

### Procurement Information

It is considered that this Contract can be placed using the negotiated procedure without prior publication of a contract notice pursuant to Article 28(1)(e) of Directive 2009/81/EC (Regulation 16(1)(a)(ii) of the Defence and Security Public Contracts Regulations (DSPCR) of 2011). This is due to the technical impracticality for another economic operator to undertake the work required within the necessary timescales in order to meet MoD timescales and at the required MAA air worthiness standards for example RA 5850. Only Penny & Giles hold the manufacturing information and current technical expertise necessary to provide the required services. To contract with another supplier would currently create an unacceptable safety risk for the MOD.
