2.2 MOD succeeded in achieving an effective procurement process which considered alternative options for the scope of the project and the form of procurement before concluding that a redevelopment of Main Building procured under the PFI would be the best option to achieve its objectives. The project which MOD then set out to procure was large and complex. It required a contractor to prepare four buildings to accommodate staff moving out of Main Building, to carry out an extensive redevelopment of Main Building, dispose of surplus properties, move staff back into Main Building and provide serviced accommodation in Main Building and Old War Office until 2030. MOD established a team comprising internal staff dedicated to the project and experienced advisers who succeeded in bringing this large complex project through a competitive procurement to contract letting.
