It is considered that the 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 2011) for technical reasons.

The Technical reasons being that LMUKA are deemed to be the only competent and viable organisation within the UK market to carry out the technical work needed to meet the requirements.
