Seminar On The “Orange Book” And Regulations For Single Source Contracts With The Ministry Of Defence, 22nd April 2015, London
A seminar to acquaint the maritime industries with the new regulations on single source contracts, known as the Orange Book, and explain their impact on the flow down of contracts into the supply chain.
The Defence Reform Act 2014 established the independent, arms length body from the Ministry of Defence to regulate single source procurement of defence assets and services. The Single Source Regulations Office (SSRO) was established by section 13 of the Act in June 2014.
The Single Source Regulations Office (SSRO) proposed a reduction in the 2015 baseline profit rate paid to defence contractors by the MOD in single source defence contracts. The SSRO then published new guidance on what costs are 'allowable' under such contracts, following a first principles review of the existing framework.
The seminar will be held at the Army & Navy Club on Wednesday 22 April 2015. Registration will begin at 1030 and the presentations will start at 1100. On completion delegates are invited to a networking buffet luncheon with wines.
Industry representatives, especially from SMEs, who are involved in the many aspects of marketing products and services and commercial negotiations are urged to attend.
