ACDECA/017 - In-Service Support for Ultrasonic NDT Equipment, Evident GMBH - Voluntary Transparency Notice (VTN)
The Defence Electronics & Components Agency (DECA), part of the UK Ministry of Defence, intends to award a contract to Evident GMBH (formally Keymed Ltd), for the support and repair of Ultrasonic NDT Equipment. The contract shall be for a period of 3 years with an anticipated value of £190K excluding VAT. Evident GMBH are the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of the Ultrasonic Flaw Detector (UFD) EPOCH 600, it supplies and procures the spare parts for the equipment. Evident GMBH have the expert technical knowledge required for the test, calibration and repair of the equipment.
It is considered that this contract can be placed with Evident GMBH using the negotiated procedure without prior publication of a contract notice, pursuant to Regulation 32(2)(b)(ii) of the UK Public Contracts Regulations 2015. This is based on technical reasons, as Evident GMBH are the only economic operator with the specific technical know-how, tools, documentation and means to meet this requirement.
The Evident GMBH equipment is required for MoD units to carry out inspections on, and assist with repairs, to aircraft equipment. If they are not supported, the capability to inspect aircraft equipment will be greatly reduced and potentially lost. This may lead to safety risks to the aircraft and cause Aircraft on Ground.
Evident GMBH are the OEM and subject matter experts for the EPOCH 600 UFD equipment, Design Authority and manufacturer of the equipment. Evident GMBH do not supply spares to third party companies and therefore no other supplier is able to fulfil this requirement.
Keymed Ltd are dividing their company, with Evident GMBH taking over the Ultrasonic Flaw Detector (UFD) EPOCH 600 equipment.
