SCHEDULE 4

EXIT PLAN

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 The purpose of this Schedule is to define the arrangements for exit
management prior to, and following, the end of the Contract Period.

1.2 The provisions of this Schedule shall operate at any time, whether before or
after commencing retendering this Contract, and irrespective of whether exit is a
result of expiry or termination of this Contract.

1.3 The Contractor shall perform its obligations as described in this Schedule 4 at
no additional cost to the Authority, notwithstanding the Contractor’s rights to request
contract adjustments for partial termination in accordance with Clause 36.12 of the
Contract, and the provision of services post expiry or termination described in
paragraph 5 of this Schedule 4.

2. PREPARATION OF EXIT PLAN

2.1 The Exit Plan (attached as Annex A to this Schedule 4) will be updated by the
Contractor within 90 Business Days following the end of the Transformation Period
and thereafter in accordance with Clauses 36.4 and 36.5 of the Contract.

3. RE-PROCUREMENT PERIOD

3.1 On request or within a maximum of 30 Business Days following the start of


the Re-Procurement Period, the Contractor shall provide access to personnel and data
identified in the Exit Plan. Provided that the exercise of such access rights by the
Authority and its representatives and advisers, does not unduly interfere with the
continuing provision of the services supplied under this Contract.

4. PARTIAL TERMINATION EXIT PLAN

4.1 A Partial Termination Exit Plan will be prepared in the same manner as the
full Exit Plan, with the same deliverable and requirements defined therein. The
primary difference being the inclusion of materials associated specifically with the
partial termination.

5. POST EXPIRY

5.1 Where the Contractor is required to comply with Clause 36.17 of the Contract
the Authority shall reimburse the Contractor with any direct costs which the
Contractor incurs for permitting or making available the items set out in Clause 36.17
or cooperating with the Authority or Follow-On-Contractor.

ANNEX A TO SCHEDULE 4
THE EXIT PLAN

1 PURPOSE AND SCOPE

The purpose of this plan is to establish a method for the organised closeout of the
project or any partial closeout based on a request for a partial termination plan. The
scope of this plan includes the provisions needed to enable the Contractor to cease
providing the services supplied under this Contract at the Expiry Date or Termination
Date and to permit the Authority or a Follow-On Contractor to commence provision
of those services while minimising any disruption to or deterioration of the
performance of the services supplied under this Contract during and after the
retendering period or partial termination. The plan provides for the definition of the
exit assistance services that the Contractor will perform to ensure a successful transfer
to the Authority or a Follow-On Contractor with no or minimal disruption or
deterioration to the services supplied under this Contract.

It is important to note that the Contractor will be providing management services to


the Authority through DIDO. This Exit Plan is written to organise the actions needed
to turnover and/or complete the requirements of this management team. There is no
intention to discuss actions needed to turnover various works and contracts, activities
and projects that are managed directly by the Authority staff under the management of
the Contractor personnel in DIDO. This plan specifically will address only those
activities under the direct control of the Named Contractors.

This Exit Plan will be updated within ninety (90) calendar days following the
completion of the Short Term Transformation Period. The initial Exit Strategy
Succession Planning Documents and the Initial checklists in the Handover plan will
be brought up to date and actions required by the contractor will be updated for
delivery to the Authority, for the Authority’s consideration and comment.

The Authority shall respond with written comments to the Contractor within 30
Business Days following receipt of the draft Exit Plan.

 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL 
Page 514 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

The Contractor shall submit a final version of the Exit Plan to the Authority for
approval within thirty (30) Business Days of receipt by the Contractor of the
Authority’s written comments on the Exit Plan and, provided such final version
properly addresses the comments of the Authority, the Authority shall reasonably
approve the plan.

3.2 Updates to Exit Plan

The Exit Plan shall be reviewed by the Contractor on an annual basis following the
approval of the plan identified in Section 3.1. Where updates are required, the Exit
Plan shall be updated and submitted to the Authority for consideration, comment and
approval as part of the annual review process.

4 Critical Deliverables in the Exit Plan

4.1 Exit Strategy Succession Plan

Included with the original Exit Plan delivery is a succession plan for the Named
Contractors. Each Named Contractor will develop a unique succession planning
chain for their position which will be reviewed annually (following the initial
submission after the Short Term Transformation Period) by the Talent Management
team and the CEO. This succession plan will be developed in accordance with the
annual talent management program referred to in paragraph 2.5 of Part 10 of Schedule
3.

4.2 Handover Plan

The Handover Plan will describe the physical documents, deliverables, data, software,
manuals, equipment, etc., that will be turned over from the Contractor to the Authority
Staff or named agent of the Authority. These items will be defined initially following
the Short Term Transformation period, but will need to be updated annually as new
data elements and new items are developed and/or identified by the Contractor. This
plan will consist of the following elements:

 Description of Turnover packages

 Demobilisation Checklist

 Named Contractors responsible for the Exit Plan

5 Critical Controls

This plan is owned by the CEO of DIDO. All requests for Retendering Data based on
a notice from the Authority to the Contractor that the Authority intends to retender
this Contract (a Notice of Intent to Retender), or Exit Data related to a partial
termination, will be requested through the CEO of DIDO. All changes to the
document or any part of this document will be approved by signature by the CEO of
DIDO.

6 Transfer of Retendering Materials and/or Exit Data

 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL 
Page 515 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

Retendering Materials and any Exit Data will be transferred to DIGA upon written
request, or as defined in the Handover Plan. All requests will be delivered within 30
Business Days of the request unless otherwise specified. Confidential data will be
marked as such or redacted to protect proprietary information related to the
Contractor.

7 Exit Assistance Services

The following exit assistance services are available to the Authority. Unless
otherwise requested by the Authority, the services are delivered in accordance with
this Exit Plan or as requested for early termination or after a Notice of Intent to
Retender. Any services beyond this list are available following a request through
Schedule 12 of the Contract:

 Succession planning within DIDO to replace the Named Contractors at


contract termination or expiry

 On the Job training and knowledge transfer to Authority personnel or other


named contractors if required at termination or expiry

 Retendering or Exit Data retrieval, packaging and delivery to requested


Authority designated personnel at termination or expiry

 Handover planning and contract termination services as defined in the


Handover Plan

8 Continuity of Services

The Contractor will maintain the Named Contractors in position and they will execute
the final exit strategy in accordance with timelines developed in the Handover Plan.
The removal of resources will occur in a planned sequence in full cooperation with
the Authority. Furthermore, the Contractor will identify personnel available to
support any transition (full or partial termination) following the Expiry Date or
Termination Date.

9 Work in Progress

It is the nature of this project that there will be work in progress and therefore,
definition of orderly transfer of open work is limited to the turnover of work under the
direct control of Named Contractors, notwithstanding the work being implemented by
Authority personnel working as subordinates to the Named Contractors. The
Turnover of work in progress will be detailed in the Handover Plan as this work is
unknown at this time.

10 Identification of Named Contractors

Named Contractors who are responsible for the delivery of exit services are identified
in the Handover Plan.

11 Minimise Costs due to Partial Termination

 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL 
Page 516 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

The Contractor will work closely with the Authority at all times to minimise cost.
When a request for partial termination or Notice of Intent to Retender is provided to
the CEO, an action officer will be appointed and all interaction with the Authority will
be coordinated with this one individual. The action officer will manage the response,
maintaining control of the cost and schedule to provide the response and assure to the
CEO that the requirement will be met with minimal disruption and cost impact to the
overall project.

ANNEX B TO SCHEDULE 4
EXIT STRATEGY SUCCESSION PLAN

The purpose of the Exit Strategy succession planning program in the DIDO is to
ensure a ready supply of internal talent for key positions at the time of contract expiry
or termination. It is the intent of the Contractor to help the Authority develop
Authority Personnel to the full extent of their potential and, to the extent possible for
the organisation, to help them achieve realistic career goals that satisfy both individual
and organisational requirements. The Contractor organisation is firmly committed to
helping Authority Personnel develop their potential so that they are prepared and
qualified to assume positions in line with individual career goals and organisational
requirements.

At least once each year, the CEO will sponsor as part of the annual performance and
development process:

 A succession planning activity that will assess how well the organisation is
positioned to meet replacement requirements by promotions or other personnel
movements from within

 Individual performance appraisal to assess how well individuals are meeting


their current job requirements

 Individual potential assessment to assess how well individuals are presently


equipped for future advancement. Unlike performance appraisal—which is
typically focused on past or present performance—the focus of individual
potential assessment will be on the future, and

 Individual development planning to provide the means for action plans to help
individuals narrow the developmental gap between what they already know or
can do and what they must know or do to qualify for advancement.

To prepare for the eventual replacement of Named Contractors with Authority


personnel by the expiry of the contract, we will work within the MOD's Talent
Management Strategy, to identify those individuals with the potential to replace our
Named Contractors and, with their line managers, help them to develop individual
action plans.

The output from the performance and potential assessments will be collated and
presented for review by the senior teams in DIGA and DIDO. The senior teams will
review and discuss those staff identified as ‘star performers’ and ‘high potential’ staff.
An example of the output we will produce is shown below:

 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL 
Page 518 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

Potential assessment of number of Grades 6 and 7 ready for promotion

This annual review with the senior staff team facilitates cross-departmental review of
individuals, in an effort to gain full knowledge of the staff available for promotion.
The team will recommend various annual developmental tasks for the high potential
staff such as:

 secondments to the wider Capita Team companies (Capita, URS or PA


Consulting) in order to provide access specialist market knowledge and
broaden experience
 stretch assignments
 in-house training
 external training, and
 cross governmental secondments.

ANNEX C TO SCHEDULE 4
HANDOVER PLAN

The Handover plan contains a brief description of the knowledge, data, materials, and
specific items that will be handed over upon termination or expiry of the Contract.
The plan will define all work in progress, documents, deliverables, books, items and
equipment that must be handed over to the Authority and/or to the Authority’s named
designate. This plan is updated annually as information is developed and data items
are created or disposed from the Project. A final handover plan is developed at one
year from the Expiry Date or within 30 Business Days of the Authority’s notice of
termination or Notice of Intent to Retender is planned. This final handover plan will
contain the data elements required for turnover to the Authority.

Structure and Purpose

The Handover Plan is structured into a series of Turnover Packages. Each package is
focused on a particular topic and each package will be owned by a Named Contractor.
There will be minor differences in the content of each package between the
incorporated and unincorporated models, but the concept remains the same. During
the life-cycle of the Contract, as items are identified that will require turnover or a
defined exit strategy, they are listed in the package and materials are defined and
developed for eventual turnover.

Turnover Package Definition

The current packages are defined as:

1. Contract Deliverables

a. Exit Strategy Succession Plan

b. Handover Plan

2. Active Subcontracts managed directly by the Contractor

a. URS Subcontract

b. PA Consulting Subcontract

3. Claims or Disputes

a. Item

5. CAPITAL PROJECTS INCENTIVE FEE

5.1 The Capital Projects Incentive Fee in respect of a particular Quarter “qn” shall
be: an amount calculated in accordance with the following formula:

CPIFqn = (((CPIPqn x PBAqn) – CPSDqn)/3) x QOM (provided that where this


calculation would result in a negative amount the provisions of Clause 19.8 shall
apply)

where:

QOM = in respect of any Quarter which is the first Quarter of this Contract or
the Last Quarter of this Contract, the combined number of whole and
part months in such Quarter, and for any other Quarter shall equal
three

CPIFqn = the Capital Projects Incentive Fee for the Quarter “qn”

CPIPqn = the Capital Projects Incentive Percentage for the Quarter “qn”

 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL 
Page 566 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

PBAqn = the Projects Baseline for the Quarter “qn”, as adjusted in accordance
with paragraph 7.1 of Part D

CPSDqn = the sum of all Capital Projects Service Deductions for the Quarter
“qn”, determined in accordance with the table below:

Element Criteria Applicable Capital Projects Service


Deduction

Schedule Achievement of an Portfolio For each Quarter “qn” a deduction of


Performance SPI equal to or better than 2% of the Capital Projects Incentive
Index the applicable Required SPI Fee for such Quarter for each 0.01 by
which the Portfolio SPI for that
Quarter falls below the Required SPI
for such Quarter, up to a maximum of
25% total deduction in such Quarter

Cost Achievement of an Portfolio For each Quarter “qn” a deduction of


Performance CPI equal to or better than 2% of the Capital Projects Incentive
Index the applicable Required CPI Fee for such Quarter for each 0.01 by
which the Portfolio CPI for that
Quarter falls below the Required CPI

(b) costed at a level equal to or below


the relevant Applicable Benchmark
for such Capital Projects,

falls below the required standard of at


least 93% of all Capital Projects
which were submitted to Main Gate in
any Quarter being costed at a level
equal to or below the relevant
Applicable Benchmark for such
Capital Projects, up to a maximum of
25% total deduction in such Quarter

By way of example only, if in a given


Quarter ten Capital Projects were
submitted to Main Gate of which one
 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

was costed at a level higher than its


Applicable Benchmark, a deduction of
6% would apply (as only 90% of the
ten submitted Capital Projects were
costed at a level equal to or lower than
their relevant Applicable Benchmarks

applying the rate of 2% for each 1%
below 93%)

Quarter five Capital Projects achieve
Handover and one of those Capital
Projects is a Non-Compliant Project, a
deduction of 25% would apply (as
only 80% of the five Capital Projects
which achieved Handover did so
having achieved their User
Acceptance Criteria. This would lead
to a deduction of 40% after applying
the rate of 2% for each 1% increment,
therefore the cap would apply
reducing the actual deduction to 25%)

Measurement and reporting

5.2 In respect of Capital Projects that have commenced prior to the Effective Date,
during the Transformation Period and in any event no later than:

(a) 180 days following the Effective Date, the Contractor shall procure that DIDO
determines a CP Baseline for each of the ten highest ranked Capital Projects
(such ranking being as determined by the Authority, taking account of their
strategic military importance and CDEL budget); and

(b) 270 days following the Effective Date, the Contractor shall procure that DIDO
determines a CP Baseline for all remaining Capital Projects for which a CP
Baseline has not already been determined.

 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL 
Page 568 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

5.3 In respect of Capital Projects that commence on or following the Effective


Date the Contractor shall procure that DIDO determines a CP Baseline for each such
Capital Project on a timely basis.

5.4 In determining the CP Baseline for any Capital Project DIDO shall follow the
“Project Review Boards” process described in paragraph 22.1 of Part 2 of Schedule 3.

5.5 Where a CP Baseline has not been determined for any Capital Project in
accordance with the time requirements set out in paragraphs 5.2 or 5.3 (as applicable),
the Authority shall be entitled to notify the Contractor of its estimate of the scope of
work, cost budget and of activities for such Capital Project which estimate shall be
deemed to be the CP Baseline (and which estimated cost budget shall be deemed to be
the Budgeted Cost) for the purposes of calculating Capital Projects Service
Deductions pursuant to paragraph 5.1 until such time as a CP Baseline has been
determined.

5.6 The Contractor shall procure that DIDO provides to the Authority all reports
and information required by the Authority in order to carry out the calculations
required to determine in any Quarter whether any Capital Projects Service Deductions
have accrued in such Quarter in respect of any Capital Projects, and in the absence of
such reports and information the Authority shall be entitled to make such assumptions
as to the actual performance of such Capital Projects as it considers appropriate.

Benchmarked Costs and User Acceptance Criteria

5.7 The Contractor shall procure that DIDO does not submit any Capital Projects
to Main Gate for which the Authority has not yet approved Applicable Benchmarks
and User Acceptance Criteria except with the prior written approval of the Authority
to the contrary. The Parties agree that such Applicable Benchmarks can reasonably
be provided, taking account in each case of relevant government and commercial data.

Applicable Benchmarks

5.8 The Contractor shall procure that DIDO:

(a) by the date falling six months from the Effective Date develops a schedule of
Applicable Benchmarks and Applicable Benchmark component elements,
which schedule shall be as detailed and comprehensive as is reasonably
practicable having regard to the information available at any given time with
respect to proposed Capital Projects and of relevant industry and other
applicable standards;

(b) reviews and keeps current such schedule (having regard to relevant industry
and other applicable standards and taking reasonable account of any comments
provided by the Authority from time to time); and

(c) submits annually to the Authority and from time to time on the Authority’s
reasonable request a copy of such schedule for Authority review and approval.

6. DISPOSALS INCENTIVE FEE

6.1 Subject to paragraph 6.2, the Disposals Incentive Fee in respect of a particular
Quarter “qn” shall be equal to the Disposal Proceeds Percentage of all Net Disposal
Proceeds received in the immediately preceding Quarter.

6.2 Where and to the extent at the time of calculation of any Disposals Incentive
Fee any Disposal Costs are known only on an estimated basis or are otherwise
uncertain the Authority shall be entitled to make a reasonable assessment of such
Disposal Costs and the Disposals Incentive Fee shall be calculated as if such
assessment were the relevant Disposal Costs. Where subsequently the Disposal Costs
which were the subject of such assessment are finally agreed or determined an amount
shall be included in the next Disposals Incentive Fee amount as an increase or
deduction to the same (as applicable) to reflect the difference between the amount of
the assessed Disposal Costs and the amount of the actual Disposal Costs.

audited DIDO’s accounts in respect of the Financial Year immediately
preceding the then current Financial Year; or

(ii) is the last Quarter within the Contract Period,

shall be equal to the sum of the Operational Cash RDEL Balancing Payment and the
Utilities Cash RDEL Balancing Payment, each calculated in accordance with the
following formulae:

OCRBPqn = OSPyn(AOCyn – AAOCyn)

USPyn = the Utilities Savings Percentage for the Financial Year “yn”

AUCyn = the four year rolling average of the Actual Utilities Costs for the
Financial Year “yn”, being the average of the sum of all Actual
Utilities Costs for each of the current and preceding three Financial
Years (or, in the third Financial Year the current and preceding two
Financial Years, in the second Financial Year the current and
preceding Financial Year and in the first Financial Year that
Financial Year only with no averaging applied)

AAUCyn = the Audited Actual Utilities Costs for the Financial Year “yn”

8.1 The Operational Cash RDEL Financial Baseline, Utilities Cash RDEL
Financial Baseline and/or Projects Baseline (as applicable) shall be adjusted for the
purposes of the calculations contained in paragraphs 3.1, 4.1 and 5.1 of Part D by an
amount equal to the sum of:

(a) the aggregate total of all amounts identified by the Authority as having been
erroneously included in the Operational Cash RDEL Financial Baseline, the
Utilities Cash RDEL Financial Baseline and/or Projects Baseline and which
have been agreed or determined to have been so erroneously included
(including where such inclusion arises from an error in the annual profiling of
the Projected NGEC Savings);

(b) any amount determined by the Authority (acting reasonably and having regard
to the matters set out in Clauses 12.26 and 12.27) as being required to be
added to or deducted from the Operational Cash RDEL Financial Baseline,
Utilities Cash RDEL Financial Baseline and/or Projects Baseline (as
applicable) in order to adjust for the effects of any Assumptions At Authority
Risk proving materially incorrect;

(c) subject always to paragraphs 8.2 and 8.3 of this Part D, any amount by which,
in any given Financial Year, the savings delivered by the Next Generation
Estate Contracts (“NGEC”) are less than the Projected NGEC Savings for that
Financial Year;

deducted from the Operational Cash RDEL Financial Baseline, Utilities Cash
RDEL Financial Baseline and/or Projects Baseline (as applicable) pursuant to
Clause 12.24(d)(ii) or (iii);

(e) any amount which the Authority has determined (acting reasonably) is
required to be deducted from the Projects Baseline in order to reflect Projects
Baseline expenditure which was anticipated in the Base Case as to be incurred
but which was agreed by the Parties should not be so incurred or which would
have been incurred but for the Contractor's failure to act in accordance with
the standard of care set out in Clause 9.1(h); and

(f) such other amounts as the Parties may agree are necessary to include in order
to accurately compare the Audited Actual Operational Costs, Audited Actual
Utilities Costs and Audited Actual Projects Costs for any Financial Year with
the Operational Cash RDEL Financial Baseline, the Utilities Cash RDEL
Financial Baseline and Projects Baseline for such Financial Year,

Savings for the Financial Year in question: 

(i) an explanatory statement detailing the reasons for the shortfall; and 

(ii) adequate supporting evidence to demonstrate that the Contractor has


procured that DIDO has managed NGEC in accordance with the
standard of care set out in Clause 9.1(h) during the Financial Year in
question.

8.3 The Authority shall be entitled to make a reasonable adjustment to the amount
by which the Operational Cash RDEL Financial Baseline, Utilities Cash RDEL
Financial Baseline and/or Projects Baseline (as applicable) shall be adjusted pursuant
to paragraph 8.1(c) to take into account any circumstances in respect of which the
Contractor bears some responsibility, whether or not it amounts to liability for the
purposes of this Contract. This shall include where the Authority, acting reasonably,
does not accept that the Contractor has procured that DIDO has managed NGEC in
accordance with the standard of care set out in Clause 9.1(h) during the Financial
Year in question.

9. FEE CAPS

9.1 In any Financial Year the:

Part E - Service Deductions

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 This Part E sets out the Service Deduction regime applicable to this Contract
in the event of under achievement of the agreed Performance Levels.

1.2 The Parties acknowledge that the purpose of Service Deductions is to:

(a) incentivise the Contractor to meet the Performance Levels and to remedy any
failure to meet the Performance Levels promptly; and

(b) provide a mechanism whereby the Authority can attain meaningful recognition
of loss resulting from the Contractor’s failure to meet the Key Performance
Indicators (KPIs).

1.3 During the period from the Commencement Date until the end of the
Transformation Period, the Authority shall not apply Service Deductions to any KPI
in respect of which relevant performance data is unavailable, provided that the
Contractor and/or DIDO (as appropriate) has used reasonable endeavours to obtain
such information, either through Authority systems or by other methods. Upon the
expiry of the Transformation Period, Service Deductions shall be applied in respect of
all KPIs in accordance with the remainder of this Part E.

2. SERVICE DEDUCTIONS

2.1 The Service Deductions to be included in the calculation of the Quarterly


Payment (as set out in paragraph 2.1 of Part D) in respect of a particular Quarter “n-
1” shall be equal to the sum of all individual Service Deductions made in respect of
each KPI for such Quarter “n-1”, each such individual Service Deduction being as
determined in accordance with paragraph 2.2.

2.2 The Service Deduction for each KPI shall be calculated as follows:

(a) comparing actual performance in respect of such KPI to the applicable


performance target for such KPI (as set out in the column headed “Baseline
performance targets” in Table 1 of Appendix 1 of this Schedule 7 (the KPI
Table));

(b) if the actual performance in respect of such KPI does not meet the
performance target for such KPI specified in the KPI Table, but instead falls
into performance band 2, 3 or 4 (as set out in the column headed “Performance
Bands” in Table 2 of Appendix 2 of this Schedule 7 (the Service Deduction
Table)), a service deduction shall be applied (as set out in the column headed
“Service Deduction Percentages” in the Service Deduction Table)
corresponding to the relevant performance band (for example, if the relevant
performance band is band 2, the corresponding service deduction shall be that
in the column headed “Service Deduction Percentages” and “Band 2”; and

 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

(c) the appropriate service deduction percentage for such KPI (as identified in
accordance with paragraph 2.2(b) above) shall then be multiplied by the
escalation factor set out in the Escalation Factor Table below and for any
Quarter forming part of the first two Contract Years after the Effective Date
(but not thereafter) shall be further multiplied by a factor of 20%:

2.3 During the period from the Commencement Date until the Effective Date no
Service Deductions shall apply. Thereafter Service Deductions shall apply subject to
the provisions of this Part E.

2.4 Subject to Clause 30, the Authority shall grant relief from specific Service
Deductions where a Relief Event occurs in respect of an Authority Dependency
provided that such relief is limited to the extent described in Schedule 25 for the
Authority Dependency in question.

2.5 The Service Deductions to be included in the calculation of the Quarterly


Payment for any Quarter falling after the first two Contract Years after the Effective
Date shall be subject to an overall cap equal to 50% of the maximum possible Service
Deductions that could have been levied in respect of such Quarter.

3. KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

3.1 The KPI Table sets out the KPIs which the Contractor is required to achieve in
the performance of this Contract (which may relate to the performance of the
Contractor or DIDO, as appropriate). The KPIs are categorised in the KPI Table into
three colours:

 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL 
Page 576 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

(a) Green: these KPIs are consistent with the historic levels achieved in the year
prior to the Commencement Date. Service Deductions in respect of the KPIs
categorised as green shall apply from the Effective Date.

(b) Amber: these KPIs require baselining in accordance with the process set out in
paragraph 5 of this Part E on the basis that the relevant historic data is either
missing or unreliable. This baselining shall be completed as soon as
practicable following the Effective Date, and in any event within 12 months of
the Effective Date. Service Deductions in respect of the KPIs categorised as
amber shall apply immediately upon the completion of this baselining process.

(c) Red: these KPIs are currently unmeasured and require further collaborative
development by the Parties to clearly define the “Smart Measures” and the
relevant “Baseline performance targets” to be included in the KPI Table for
such KPIs. The Parties shall cooperate in good faith to achieve this by the end
of the Transformation Period following the process set out paragraph 5 of this
Part E, failing which the Authority shall instruct such amendments to the KPIs
categorised as red as it reasonably considers appropriate having regard to the
principles set out in paragraph 6 of this Part E. Service Deductions in respect
of the KPIs categorised as red shall apply immediately upon the completion of
this development process.

3.2 Subject to the principles set out in paragraph 6 of this Part E:

(a) the Contractor shall be permitted to propose (and/or the Authority may require
the Contractor to bring forward) adjustments to the KPIs in accordance with
the process set out in paragraph 4 of this Part E;

(b) the Authority may instruct additional KPIs or adjustments to existing KPIs
during the Transformation Period in accordance with paragraphs 5.1 to 5.2 of
this Part E; and

(c) either party may propose an adjustment to the KPIs in accordance with
paragraphs 5.3 to 5.4 of this Part E.

4. ANNUAL PROCESS FOR AGREEING THE KPIS

4.1 By no later than 31 January in each Financial Year the Contractor shall
provide to the Authority:

(a) its proposal as to any amendments it reasonably considers are required to be


made to the KPIs in order to ensure that the KPIs continue to effectively
monitor and reflect DIDO’s activities and objectives during the Contract
Period (the draft KPI Amendments Proposal), which draft KPI Amendments
Proposal:

(i) may comprise any combination of the addition of new KPIs, the
deletion of existing KPIs and/or the amendment of existing KPIs in
each case subject to the principles set out in paragraph 6 of this Part E;
and

 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL 
Page 577 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

(ii) shall be consistent with the draft Infrastructure Implementation Plan


provided to the Authority by DIDO on or about the same date pursuant
to Clause 12.4 of the Contract;

(b) adequate details of

(i) the factual basis for each KPI addition, deletion or amendment and the
specific reasons for, and benefits to be derived from implementation
of, the same;

(ii) the Contractor’s assumptions underpinning the demonstration of its


achievement of each existing KPI together with, in the case of any
additional KPI, details of DIDO’s current and historic performance
against such KPI to the extent known or available (and the Contractor
shall if so requested by the Authority obtain and collate such data to
the extent possible);

(iii) the criteria by which the Contractor or DIDO’s performance (as


appropriate) would be measured were such draft KPI Amendments
Proposal to be implemented, including full details of:

(A) the applicable Baseline Performance Target, Units and


Frequency for each KPI;

(B) the applicable Performance Bands for each KPI;

(C) whether, in respect of each KPI, such KPI is a Binary or


Ratchet KPI;

(D) the Service Deduction applicable to each KPI,

in each case following such implementation;

(iv) how the Contractor or DIDO’s performance under and in respect of


each KPI (as appropriate) following implementation of the draft KPI
Amendments Proposal would be recorded and measured; and

(v) in the case of any additional KPI, an assessment of any projected


increase or decrease in deductions (identifying the resulting impact on
each individually affected KPI and in aggregate across all KPIs) by
reason of the addition of such KPI over the period of 24 months from
the date on which Service Deductions could first be made against such
KPI together with the projected consequential impact on each
Quarterly Payment during such period.

For the purposes of this paragraph 4.1(b), whether or not the details provided
are adequate will be at the Authority’s discretion.

4.2 Within 10 Business Days of receipt of the draft KPI Amendments Proposal
pursuant to paragraph 4.1 of this Part E, the Authority (acting reasonably and having

 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL 
Page 578 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

regard to the Infrastructure Implementation Plan, Command Plan, Footprint Strategy


and Control Totals for the Financial Year to which the draft KPI Amendments
Proposal relates and to the principles set out in paragraph 6 of this Part E) shall:

(a) provisionally approve all or part of the draft KPI Amendments Proposal;

(b) request that the Contractor provides supplemental information and/or meets
with the Authority to discuss the draft KPI Amendments Proposal; or

(c) notify DIDO of any objections and/or proposed modifications to the draft
Infrastructure Implementation Plan that are required in order to obtain the
Authority’s approval of the draft KPI Amendments Proposal.

4.3 If the Authority proposes modifications to the draft KPI Amendments


Proposal under paragraph 4.2(c) of this Part E, the Contractor shall modify and
resubmit the draft KPI Amendments Proposal to the Authority and the procedure
under paragraph 4.2 and this paragraph 4.3 shall apply until approval is given by the
Authority.

4.4 The Contractor shall update the draft KPI Amendments Proposal provided
pursuant to paragraph 4.1 of this Part E to reflect the final Command Plan and Control
Totals by no later than 31 March in each Financial Year, and (subject to paragraph 4.5
of this Part E) the approval process set out in paragraphs 4.2 and 4.3 of this Part E
shall then apply until the Authority has approved the final KPI Amendments Proposal.

4.5 If it is necessary for the approval process set out in paragraphs 4.2 and 4.3 of
this Part E to be followed three or more times in one year before approval has been
granted by the Authority, the Parties shall meet to discuss:

(a) the reason(s) why the draft KPI Amendments Proposal has not been approved
in each case; and

(b) methods of minimising approval time for future KPI Amendments Proposals.

4.6 If the Authority has approved part of the KPI Amendments Proposal pursuant
to paragraph 4.2(a) of this Part E:

(a) the Contractor shall implement the parts of the KPI Amendments Proposal
which have been approved; and

(b) in respect of those parts of the KPI Amendments Proposal which have not
been approved, the unamended KPIs for the forthcoming Financial Year shall
apply unless and until approval of the relevant parts of the KPI Amendments
Proposal is given by the Authority.

4.7 Subject to paragraph 4.8 of this Part E, any dispute as to the contents of the
KPI Amendments Proposal shall be resolved in accordance with Clause 43, provided
that the Contractor may only dispute whether the Authority is being reasonable in
withholding any approval pursuant to paragraphs 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4 of this Part E.

 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL 
Page 579 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

4.8 If the addition, deletion or amendment of any KPI has not been agreed within
three months of receipt by the Authority of the draft KPI Amendments Proposal the
Authority shall be entitled to determine (acting reasonably) whether such KPI is
added, deleted or amended.

4.9 If at any stage (including during the process referred to in paragraphs 4.1 to
4.4 of this Part E) any of the circumstances contemplated in limbs (a) to (c) of Clause
12.17 of the Contract occur then the provisions of Clauses 12.18 to 12.23 shall apply
save that references to variations or amendments to the Infrastructure Implementation
Plan shall be deemed to be references to variations or amendments of the KPIs.

4.10 The provisions of Clauses 12.24 to 12.30 of the Contract shall apply to the
KPI Amendments Proposal as if set out in this Part E save that for the purposes of this
paragraph all references in such clauses to the Infrastructure Implementation Plan
shall be deemed to be references to the KPI Amendments Proposal.

5. CHANGES TO KPIS DURING THE CONTRACT YEAR

Transformation Review

5.1 In addition to the process set out in paragraph 4 of this Part E, the Parties shall
review progress against the KPIs in place as at the Commencement Date as part of the
Transformation Review, and where necessary the Authority may propose:

(a) adjustments to the KPIs to reflect any greater clarity achieved in respect of the
measurement of performance against KPIs and service levels achieved during
the Transformation Period, so as to ensure that the KPIs are up to date and
relevant for the remainder of the Contract Period; and

(b) additional KPIs or adjustments to the existing KPIs to ensure that the KPIs
remain effective measurements of the Contractor or DIDO’s performance (as
appropriate)for the remainder of the Contract Period,

(such proposed additional or adjusted KPIs being the Authority Adjusted KPIs).

5.2 The process for proposing the Authority Adjusted KPIs following the
Transformation Period will be as set out in paragraph 4 of this Part E.

Material change

5.3 If a material change occurs to the assumptions underlying or relating to the


KPIs, either Party may notify the other Party of the change and propose that one or
more of the KPIs are adjusted in light of the change and the Authority shall consider
whether any such proposed adjustments should be implemented or not. If the
Authority considers that one or more of the KPIs should be adjusted pursuant to any
such proposal the Authority shall instruct that the KPIs be adjusted accordingly and
shall also instruct any redistribution of the Quarterly Payment between the KPIs
required as a result of the adjustment.

 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL 
Page 580 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

5.4 Disputes as to whether any adjustments to the KPIs instructed by the Authority
pursuant to paragraph 5.3 are necessary in order to address the relevant material
change in assumptions will be determined in accordance with Clause 43.

6. PRINCIPLES FOR ADJUSTMENT OF KPIS

6.1 It is expected that, unless and to the extent both Parties agree in writing to the
contrary, the following principles shall apply to any adjustments to the KPIs pursuant
to the process set out above:

(a) KPIs shall be based on information that is collected in the normal course of
DIDO’s business and is either measured or readily measurable;

(b) such adjustments shall not make the KPIs more or less onerous overall (except
those KPIs that include a pre-determined improvement target within the
narrative of the “Baseline Performance Targets” column within the KPI Table
or where it is agreed or determined that a particular KPI has proven materially
more or less onerous that the Parties contemplated, and/or is not working as
intended); and

(c) such adjustments shall not reduce the number of KPIs or to redistribute the
Quarterly Payment between them in a way which increases the proportionate
risk of the Contractor of losing its fee where the Contractor fails to meet one
or more KPIs (for the avoidance of doubt, the intention of this restriction is not
to prevent fee being redistributed between KPIs to reflect adjusted priorities).

7. TERMINATION

7.1 Where termination of this Contract occurs:

(a) in the first half of a Quarter, the Authority shall consider the level of
abatement to the Quarterly Payment for the previous Quarter as a result of any
Service Deductions. If there was such an abatement, the Authority shall base
the abatement for the final Quarter on the abatement for the previous Quarter
(pro–rated as appropriate); or

(b) in the second half of a Quarter, the Authority shall measure the Contractor’s
progress against the relevant KPIs at the point of termination, and the KPI
abatement for the final Quarter shall be based on that measurement.

8. AUTHORITY REMEDIES

8.1 Without prejudice to the Authority’s right under Clauses 34.10 or 44 of the
Contract, Service Deductions shall be the sole financial remedy for the Contractor’s
failure to procure that DIDO operates to the baseline performance targets set out in
the KPI Table, and any costs to rectify the performance of DIDO to the baseline
performance targets set out in the KPI Table shall be met out of the DIDO RDEL or
CDEL budgets as appropriate.

9. CHANGES TO CAPITAL PROJECTS KPIS 

9.1 Following the end of the Transformation Period, the procedures for agreeing,
changing and adjusting KPIs as set out in paragraphs 4, 5.3 and 6 of this Part E shall
apply to the Capital Projects Service Deductions mechanisms contained in the table at
paragraph 5 of Part D (the Capital Projects KPIs), mutatis mutandis and disregarding
limbs (A) to (D) of paragraph 4.1(a)(iii), such that from such date the Capital Projects
KPIs are agreed, changed and adjusted in accordance with those paragraphs.

9.2 Without prejudice to the principles set out in paragraph 6 of this Part E, where
and to the extent the Authority is of the opinion in any Financial Year that the ranking
of any Capital Project does not properly reflect the strategic military importance of
such Capital Project, the Authority shall be entitled to take account of such proper
ranking as part of the process for agreeing, changing and adjusting Capital Projects
KPIs pursuant to paragraph 9.1 above.

Part F - Windfall Gain Sharing

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 This Part F sets out the Windfall Gain Sharing arrangements

1.2 In this Part F, unless the contact otherwise requires the following words shall
have the following meanings:

Adjusted Windfall Gain shall have the meaning given in paragraph 2.1 below;

Exit Certificate shall have the meaning given in paragraph 2.2 below;

Gain means the monetary value (assessed on a fair and reasonable basis) received as
consideration by the Contractor for disposing of its interest in the Contract; and

Windfall Gain means a sum of money equating to 30% of the Gain.

2. WINDFALL GAIN SHARING

2.1 Subject to Clauses 37 and 38, if the Contractor makes a Gain from:

(a) assigning or novating this Contract to a third party that is not a Contractor
Affiliate; or

(b) a restructuring which results in the transfer of this Contract to a Contractor


Affiliate which Contractor Affiliate is subsequently sold to a third party; or

(c) a restructuring which results in the transfer of this Contract to a Contractor


Affiliate in which third party equity subsequently participates; or

(d) subsequently creating a special purpose vehicle (SPV) with third party
investors and transfers this Contract into that SPV,

then the Contractor shall pay (in accordance with the remaining paragraphs below) the
Windfall Gain to the Authority except where the Affiliate or SPV (being divested in
accordance with sub-paragraphs (a) to (d)) supplies services to more than one
customer under contract (including this Contract) then such Windfall Gain shall be
multiplied by a ‘fair percentage’ (such fair percentage to be determined by a jointly
appointed independent third party that has regard to the value of the other customer
contracts) (the Adjusted Windfall Gain) and the Contractor shall instead pay (in
accordance with the remaining paragraphs below) the Adjusted Windfall Gain to the
Authority.

2.2 By the date falling no later than 30 Business Days from the date of any Gain
the Contractor shall provide a certificate to the Authority's Representative stating
details of:

(a) the sums received from the Gain; and


 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL 
Page 583 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

(b) the calculation of the Windfall Gain or the Adjusted Windfall Gain (subject to
the fair percentage having been decided),

(the Exit Certificate).

2.3 The Contractor shall procure that the Exit Certificate is signed by two officers
of the Contractor and the calculation of the Windfall Gain or the Adjusted Windfall
Gain shall be confirmed in writing by the Contractor's auditor who shall provide a
report addressed to the Authority on its review of such calculation.

2.4 By the date falling no later than five Business Days from the date of issue of
the Exit Certificate the Contractor shall pay to the Authority an amount equal to the
Windfall Gain or Adjusted Windfall Gain (as applicable).

2.5 In the event that the Contractor does not provide an Exit Certificate in
accordance with paragraph 2.2, the Authority reserves the right to estimate the
Windfall Gain or Adjusted Windfall Gain from the Gain and to issue an Exit
Certificate, in which case paragraph 2.3 shall not apply but the Contractor shall
remain subject to paragraph 2.4.

2.6 Any dispute arising in relation to paragraph 2.5 shall be determined in


accordance with Clause 43.

SCHEDULE 7, APPENDIX 3 INCENTIVE FEE BANDS WORKED EXAMPLES

Scenario Name Commentary


A: In year 1 the final outturn spend is £60m less than the Operational Cash RDEL Baseline.
SUSTAINABLE SAVINGS EACH The first £17.5m savings are at 0% incentive fee.
YEAR The next £42.5m all falls into band 2 and is subject to 20%, generating £8.5m incentive fee.
The following year’s Baseline is reduced by the £60m year 1 savings to create an adjusted
baseline
B: Similar to the above scenario with different yearly amounts of savings to demonstrate how the
SUSTAINABLE SAVINGS EACH year model is intended to work
(ALTERNATIVE PROFILE)
C: There are no savings in year 1
OVERSPENDS IN YEARS 2 AND 4 In year 2 the Baseline is exceeded / overspent by £30m
In year 3 the original Baseline is under spent by £90m however this is treated as a £60m saving
as the previous overspend of £30m is offset against this saving
D: In year 4 there is a saving of £2m incremental over the previous years cumulative incremental
PER SCENARIO B WITH NON- savings
SUSTAINABLE SAVING IN YEAR 4 In year 4 it is assumed that £1m of the £2m increment relates to a non-sustainable (“one-off”)
initiative.
This example will be updated in At the end of year 4 the True Cost Variance process is used to agree the actual outturn
accordance with paragraph 3.1A of Part expenditure related to that “one-off” initiative and consequently this is not counted as a net prior
D year operational saving in so far as calculating the adjusted baseline is concerned for the
following year.
This is demonstrated by reducing year 4’s £112m cumulative incremental savings to £111m in
year 5.
This also means that in year 4, the £1m one-off saving is included together with the £1m
sustainable saving within fee band 4 to calculate £0.8m of Incentive Fee, i.e. £2m x 40%
It should be noted that the £1m non-sustainable (“one-off”) saving is not reversed out of the fee
band cumulative saving (the hopper remains at the maximum level previously reached)

Notes:
1. As Control Totals have only been issued for 10 years to DIO, figures for 24/25
are based on 23/24 uplifted by 2.2%
2. Disposal targets and CDEL funding from 20/21onwards are still subject to
discussion and further agreement with DG Fin. The disposal targets are
currently derived from the final issued ABC14 CDEL Control Totals
3. "unspecified projects". The Authority to approve expenditure against this
funding has not been delegated by the Authority to DIDO. Delegation to
approve expenditure against this funding will be given when requirements are
confirmed.

The Authority shall make available additional funding (in addition to that contained
within the Base Case) of £20m to fund any additional costs directly related to
implementation of DIDO’s Information Management System (“IMS”). Subject
always to the Contractor having procured that DIDO has managed the implementation
of the IMS system in accordance with standards required by Clause 9.1(h) such
funding shall be available to be drawn down by DIDO as and when needed for such
purposes. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the full costs of IMS
implementation cannot be predicted with certainty and that, in the event that
additional funds above £20m are required, the Contractor shall be entitled to submit
business cases for any additional funding which may be required to complete the
implementation of the IMS system (such cases to be considered by the Authority
acting reasonably). For the avoidance of doubt, this does not constitute any form of
commitment on the part of the Authority to approve any such business cases.

OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL
 
 
THIS GUARANTEE is made on 2014

BETWEEN:

(1) CAPITA PLC, (registered number 2081330), a company incorporated in


England, whose registered office (and address for correspondence) is 71
Victoria Street, Westminster, London, SW1H 0XA (the Guarantor); and

(2) THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR DEFENCE (the Authority).

WHEREAS:

(A) Capita Busines Services Ltd (Contractor), and the Authority have entered into
an agreement on [____] pursuant to which the Contractor has agreed to place an
executive management team into the Defence Infrastructure Delivery Organisation
(DIDO) and transform DIDO into a world class public sector infrastructure delivery
organisation (the Contract).

(B) It is a condition of the Contract that the Contractor procures the execution and
delivery to the Authority of a guarantee in the form set out herein.

(C) The Guarantor has agreed to guarantee the due performance of the Contract by
the Contractor in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Guarantee.

IT IS AGREED:

1. DEFINITIONS AND INTERPRETATION

1.1 Words and expressions defined in the Contract have the same meaning when
used in this Guarantee unless the context otherwise requires or unless otherwise
defined or provided for in this Guarantee.

2. GUARANTEE

2.1 In consideration of the Authority entering into the Contract (a copy of which
the Guarantor acknowledges having received) with the Contractor, the Guarantor
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) guarantees to the Authority, as a continuing obligation, the due, proper and
punctual observance and performance by the Contractor, of each and all of the
obligations, warranties, duties and undertakings of the Contractor under, or
pursuant to, the Contract (the Guaranteed Obligations) as and when such
Guaranteed Obligations shall become due in accordance with the terms of the
Contract;

(b) undertakes to provide all resources and facilities, whether financial or


otherwise, to enable the Contractor to fulfil the Guaranteed Obligations; and

OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

Page 626
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

(c) undertakes to pay to the Authority, if the Contractor fails to pay the Authority
when due, all such unpaid amounts whatsoever which the Contract provides
are to be paid by the Contractor. Any such amounts shall be due from the
Guarantor as principal debtor and not merely as surety.

2.2 The Guarantor shall perform:

(a) its Guaranteed Obligations under this Guarantee within five Business Days or
such period as is reasonable in the circumstances; and

(b) its payment obligations under this Guarantee within five Business Days,

in each case, after receipt of written notice from Authority in accordance with clause
14, provided only that the Authority shall have first made a demand in writing for
performance of the relevant obligation(s) to the Contractor.

3. INDEMNITY

The Guarantor, as principal obligor and as a separate and independent obligation and
liability from its obligations and liabilities under clause 2.1, undertakes that if any of
its obligations or liabilities under clause 2.1 are or become unenforceable, invalid or
illegal for any reason whatsoever attributable to any act or omission of the Guarantor
or the Contractor (whether or not they are aware of the same), the Guarantor will
separately indemnify and keep indemnified the Authority on demand against any and
all losses, actions, claims, proceedings, liabilities, expenditure or costs suffered or
incurred by the Authority arising out of or in connection with such unenforceability,
invalidity or illegality. The amount payable by the Guarantor under this indemnity
will be equal to the amount it would have had to pay under clause 2 had the relevant
obligations not been unenforceable, invalid or illegal.

4. VARIATION TO THE CONTRACT

The Guarantor hereby authorises the Authority and the Contractor to make any
changes, modifications or variations to the Contract, including a Change under and in
accordance with the Contract, and the Guarantor irrevocably agrees:

(a) that any such change, modification and variation, including a Change under
and in accordance with the Contract, shall be binding on the Guarantor in all
circumstances;

(b) to guarantee the due and punctual performance of the Guaranteed Obligations,
as so amended, modified and varied; and

(c) to perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of this Guarantee,
notwithstanding that such amendment, modification or variation may increase
or otherwise affect the liability of the Guarantor under this Guarantee.

5. UNDERTAKINGS

5.1 The Guarantor waives any right it may have to require the Authority (or any
agent on its behalf) to demand, proceed against or enforce any other right or claim for
payment against the Contractor or any other person before claiming from the
Guarantor under this Guarantee, save only for the making of a demand to the
Contractor in accordance with clause 2.2.

6. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND DEFENCES

6.1 The Guarantor may:

(a) raise hereunder all objections and defences the Contractor has or would have
under the Contract; and

(b) assume all rights of set-off, defence, counterclaim, limitation and/or exclusion
of liability as the Contractor may have against the Authority under the
Contract,

save for any such rights, objections and defences that arise on grounds of any of the
events or matters set out in clause 6.4.

6.2 The liability of the Guarantor pursuant to this Guarantee shall not exceed
(when taken together with any other amount recovered under the Contract and/or this
Guarantee, the value of any Guaranteed Obligation performed or procured by the
Guarantor, and/or from any other security provided under or pursuant to the terms of
the Contract (excluding any such security provided by the Contractor to the
Authority)) the limits of liability set out in Clause 45 of the Contract.

6.3 The Authority shall not be entitled to receive and retain any amount paid under
this Guarantee to the extent that the Authority has already received payment in respect
of the same claim, whether such payment was made under the Contract or any other
guarantee or security issued to the Authority in respect of the obligations of the
Contractor under the Contract. Any amount received by the Authority which, in
accordance with this clause 6.3, the Authority is not entitled to receive and retain shall
be held by the Authority on trust for the Guarantor, and shall be promptly returned to
the Guarantor, upon the Authority becoming aware that it is not entitled to receive and
retain such amount.

6.4 Save as expressly stated in this Guarantee, the obligations and liability of the
Guarantor under this Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding
any act, omission, event or matter whatsoever, whether or not known to the
Guarantor, the Contractor or the Authority (other than irrevocable payment to the
Authority of amounts under and in accordance with this Guarantee and performance
in full of all Guaranteed Obligations), and nothing shall affect, impair, discharge,
release or otherwise exonerate the Guarantor from any of its liabilities or obligations
under this Guarantee, including the following:

under the Contract as the Guarantor is entitled to raise or assume in

OFFICIAL SENSITIVE – COMMERCIAL


Page 628
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

accordance with clause 6.1) which would have discharged, reduced or


otherwise adversely affected the liability of the Guarantor, whether as surety,
co-obligor or otherwise, or which would have afforded the Guarantor any legal
or equitable defences;

(b) the existence, validity, obtaining or renewal of any other guarantee, security or
right of recourse, set-off or other right or interest held by the Authority in
relation to the Contract or any other document entered into pursuant to the
Contract or any demand or enforcement, failure to demand or enforce or the
release or waiver of any such guarantee, security, right of recourse, set-off or
other right or interest;

(c) any amendment, variation, assignment, novation, modification or waiver


(express or implied and however substantial or material), to the Contract or
any other document relating to the Contract (which shall be binding upon the
Guarantor in all circumstances, notwithstanding that such amendment,
variation, assignment, novation, modification or waiver may increase or
otherwise affect the liability of the Guarantor);

(d) any release of or granting of time or any other indulgence to the Contractor or
any third party;

prior to any such costs being incurred;

(B) agreed that, given the nature of the proposed Change, it is reasonable to

(C) the Contractor has provided the Authority with such evidence as it may
reasonably require in order to verify the actual direct costs incurred by
the Contractor.

SCHEDULE 22

CORPORATE REACH BACK: PRINCIPLES PAPER

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Award Criterion B.2.3 refers Bidders to:

(a) demonstrate an effective strategy to access specialist market knowledge, resources and
wider skills beyond its Named Contractors on an ongoing basis to support the delivery
of the Authority’s requirements and the Infrastructure Implementation Plan (IIP); and

(b) confirm that it will provide such corporate reach-back and additional specialist market
knowledge in order to deliver the IIP at its own risk and at no cost to the Authority.

Further guidance on corporate reach-back is set out below.

2. OVERARCHING PRINCIPLES

2.1 The following section sets out the Authority’s overarching principles to be considered
by Bidders when developing its reach-back proposals:

(a) The primary purpose of reach-back is to allow for access to corporate knowledge and
additional corporate resources outside of the SBP management team (“Named
Contractors”). This may be where the SBP considers that the IIP and/or additional
financial savings can be better or more quickly delivered through the injection of
additional resources.

(b) The costs of providing reach-back must be met entirely by the SBP.

(c) When considering the use of reach-back, the SBP needs to ensure that DIDO remains a
sustainable organisation in the long term. The primary role of the SBP is therefore to
embed the required skills into DIDO (for example through training and recruitment)
rather than through implanting additional SBP resources in the organisation that will be
removed when the SBP relationship ceases.

(d) The concept of reach-back is one of accessing SBP corporate capability so that DIDO
can deliver its requirements on an ongoing basis.

(e) When considering its options to fill any skills gaps or posts, DIDO must demonstrate
that it has considered the use of normal recruitment processes and not merely relied on
the availability of SBP resource. Any arrangements for temporary filling of posts
through reach-back that are put in place must consider and comply with legislation and
Authority Policy Rules and Guidance (including in relation to TUPE, public
procurement and the approvals process for use of consultants).

(f) The Authority wishes to encourage the use of reach-back to promote best practice
through DIDO and considers this could be done through, but is not limited to: provision
of corporate best practice, information, red team reviews, joint training, secondments or
interchange of DIDO staff to the SBP partner organisations (and vice versa) and other

OFFICIAL SENSITIVE – COMMERCIAL


Page 1257
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

similar mechanisms. Any secondments must comply with Authority Policy Rules and
Guidance.

(g) It is expected that proposals in relation to reach-back will be set out in the IIP and
updated as part of the IIP on an annual basis

3. SPECIFIC OPERATIONAL REACH-BACK

3.1 The following section sets out where the Authority’s believes corporate reach-back
could be used by an SBP.

Short term resource requirement

3.2 The provision of SBP staff to DIDO to temporarily plug any unfilled long term post.
The SBP will be required to demonstrate that DIDO has first tried or is trying to fill the shortage
through the normal channels, which are likely to include:

(a) Backfilling posts from DIDO

(b) Recruitment routes available to DIDO

(c) Agency staff and existing supply chain arrangements.

3.3 Any short term posts will be subject to the manpower substitution provisions which
provide for a maximum duration of 11 months.

Access to SBP corporate processes/knowledge

3.4 The provision of information on how its corporate uses processes/ best market practice
for the benefit of DIDO.

Additional projects volume

3.5 Additional reach-back resource may be required to manage projects volume, spikes in
activity or specialist activity.

3.6 Projects resources required will be determined on an annual basis through the IIP
process. The SBP will be expected to provide reach-back to support the programme of work
where required. There may also be other spikes in activity, one off projects or specialists
requirements that do not merit the recruitment of a long term post where the SBP will be able to
offer support from its organisation on a temporary basis.

Supplemental training

3.7 The provision of reach-back to supplement existing Authority training to up-skill the
DIDO workforce and gain and maintain market knowledge. For example, it is envisaged that
the SBP may use its reach-back to provide onsite and offsite training to DIDO resources as well
as the use of seminars and ad hoc training courses to enable DIDO staff to better perform its
functions and deliver the IIP.

3.8 Whilst the Authority sees up-skilling and training DIDO staff as an important part of
reach-back, formal training must adhere to any Authority Policy Rules and Guidance and use
the training facilities / personnel presently provided to the wider Authority.
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE – COMMERCIAL
Page 1258
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

SBP staff injection for specific procurement / activity

3.9 The SBP may wish to use reach-back to inject temporary SBP staff into DIDO to help
support procurements to accelerate the timetable and therefore savings available.

Access to specialist skill set

3.10 Reach-back may be used where DIDO requires access to a limited specialist skill set to
complete a task which is not a full time position. The SBP is encouraged to provide support
subject to demonstrating that they have tried to fill the requirement through normal channels as
set out above or where it is not value for money or cost effective to do so i.e. for a short term/
one off task.

4. PROHIBITED USE OF REACH-BACK

4.1 The following section sets out what is not permissible under the concept of reach-back.

Using reach-back for the long term filling of DIDO posts and/ or requirement for specific
technical specialist requirement on an on-going basis:

4.2 Such ongoing or long term needs are to be filled in the long term by a permanent
employee where that post is considered necessary in the long term.

4.3 Where a lack of resources has been identified by DIDO and/ or DIDO does not have the
relevant skills set, DIDO supported by the SBP, would review the options for addressing that
shortage or skills gap. This may include the use of agency staff, existing frameworks or
external recruitment where the post cannot be filled internally. As per the existing DIO process,
a business case would need to be made to establish the need and review the options. It is
considered that it would not be appropriate for the SBP to fill this gap through corporate reach-
back on a long term basis.

Using reach-back to fill Urgent Operational Requirements:

4.4 DIDO should be a sustainable organisation with appropriate internal skills and supply
chain to manage Urgent Operational Requirements (“UOR”). Therefore, DIDO should not be
reliant on the SBP Corporate reach-back to fill Urgent Operational Requirements. However the
Authority does recognises that there may be certain instances where reach-back may be required
for UOR on a short term resource requirement basis (as per 3.1 above), and in such
circumstances this may be permissible.

Filling a DIDO post with reach-back resources which is not vacant:

4.5 The SBP cannot substitute its own staff for DIDO staff through corporate reach-back.
DIDO wants to ensure that it is appropriately up-skilled and staffed so that there is a sustainable
organisation going forward, rather than an organisation filled with temporary posts.

Using reach-back to replace elements of the DIDO supply chain:

4.6 Corporate reach-back should not be used to plug any gaps in the delivery supply chain.
The role of the SBP is strategic only and not delivery focused. The use of corporate reach-back
should not result in any conflict of interest with any existing delivery frameworks and must be
in compliance with the Contractor’s Conflicts Management Policy.
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE – COMMERCIAL
Page 1259
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

Using reach- back to increase the scope of the contract or role of the SBP:

4.7 The use of reach-back should not be used as a way to increase the scope of the contract
or role of the SBP so that it falls outside the scope that was advertised in the original OJEU
notice.

SCHEDULE 23

SPEND TO SAVE INITIATIVES AND PUMP PRIMING INITIATIVES: PRINCIPLES

PAPER

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 The overarching principles are as follows:

(a) The Authority would like to pursue further Spend to Save and Pump Priming
initiatives but may not have the funds available to pursue them itself.

(b) As such it would wish to have a facility whereby it can request that the SBP funds
such initiatives on behalf of the Authority.

(c) Primarily the Authority envisages that it will be DIDO that pursues the initiative
with the support of the SBP and any corporate reach back facility (see principles for
reach-back at the end of this paper).

(d) The Authority would, however, be unable to invest alongside the SBP as it is not
permitted to mix public and private funds. The Authority would, however, retain
the right to fund the initiative in its entirety.

(e) The SBP would earn a return on its money investment and be reimbursed its
money investment. This would tend to be a priority return (assuming no senior debt
funding) and payable from the savings or disposal receipts generated.

(f) The SBP is to bid a cap and collar for this return, providing the parameters for the
return that can be earned by the SBP. These are to be bid during the process together
with any other conditions.

(g) Costs to be incurred by DIDO pursuing such initiatives must be transparent and pre-
agreed with the Authority.

(h) At the start of each stage (see below), the SBP and DIDO will document how VFM
will be measured and assessed at each subsequent stage.

2. SPEND TO SAVE INITIATIVES

2.1 Overarching intention is that this relates to upfront money investment to drive future
revenue savings.

2.2 The PMPP provides for:

(a) Stage 1 – DIDO to put forward its initial proposals (options analysis, costings,
projected savings and SBP proposed return on investment, accounting treatment) for
Authority to consider.

OFFICIAL SENSITIVE – COMMERCIAL


Page 1261
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

(b) As part of its initial proposal, the SBP should set out its proposed role in the initiative
and consider whether the initiative is in compliance with the procurement rules, together
with any other options the Authority may have to procure the initiative.

(c) If acceptable, DIDO would develop the proposal further to a point where it is ready to
be implemented including the detailed costing proposed etc. (stage 2).

(d) The return on the SBP’s money investment is contingent on the delivery of the
savings and payable only once. However that capital invested and return may be
recouped over a period of time where the savings are delivered over a period of time.

(e) The return is to be agreed on a case by case basis – subject to a cap and collar to be bid
at ITN.

(f) If the principle of the initiative is accepted at stage 1 and DIDO develops the detailed
costing (stage 2), and the Authority does not then approve the detailed proposal (and the
SBP demonstrates that it would have delivered VFM), the Authority will reimburse the
SBP’s reasonable costs.

(g) Reasonable costs include any third party costs and reach-back costs the SBP has
incurred as a result of pursuing that initiative beyond stage 1. Such costs are to be
agreed prior to the commencement of the work and capped at that level as being the
maximum to be reimbursed should the Authority not pursue the initiative beyond
stage 2 (subject to the VFM assessment above).

2.3 Spend to save scenarios are set out below for illustrative purposes only.

3. PUMP PRIMING INITIATIVES

3.1 The overarching intention is that this relates to capital investment to kick start an
initiative that will result in a capital receipt (rather than the primary purpose being to
deliver on-going savings as per spend to save, although future savings may occur as a result
of the pump priming). Examples might include:

(a) funding the provision of upfront infrastructure in-order to improve the value of land to
be brought to the market. i.e. one off capital injection and associated works upfront to
deliver a future capital receipt.

(b) investing in planning advice to change the use of land or improve the value of that
land. i.e. one off capital injection for third party services to improve the value of an
asset or to maximise future sale proceeds.

(c) acquisition of ransom strips.

3.2 It is considered this will not involve the SBP providing strategic management input
upfront to maximise value – as this is part of the remit in any event, needs to be compliant
with the principles of corporate reach-back and the SBP would get rewarded through the
incentive fee mechanism for disposals and projects.

3.3 As for spend the save, the PMPP provides for:

(a) Stage 1 - DIDO to put forward its initial proposals (options analysis, costings, projected
receipts and associated capital expenditure, planning implications and SBP proposed
return on investment, accounting treatment) for Authority to consider. The stage 1
proposal is also to consider wider issues such as re-provisioning costs, stakeholder
management etc.

(b) As part of its initial proposal, the SBP should set out its proposed role in the initiative
and consider whether the initiative is in compliance with the procurement rules, together
with any other options the Authority may have to procure the initiative.

(c) If acceptable to the Authority, DIDO is to develop the proposal further to a point
where it is ready to go to market including detailed costing proposed etc. (stage 2).
Projected receipts are to be supported by independent third party valuations.

(d) The return on investment is contingent on the delivery of the initiative and payable
from subsequent net disposal receipts.

(e) If the net proceeds from disposal are insufficient to repay the capital and the return as a
result of the disposal not generating the level of receipts envisaged by the SBP, the
SBP’s capital and return will be limited to that increase in value. If no additional value
is generated, no capital or return will be payable.

(f) The return is to be agreed on a case by case basis – subject to a cap and collar to be bid
at ITN

OFFICIAL SENSITIVE – COMMERCIAL


Page 1266 
 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

(g) The SBP will additionally share in the net disposal incentive fee as per the PMPP. For
the avoidance of doubt this will also be net of any investment made by the SBP so there
is no double counting.

(h) If the principle of the initiative is accepted at stage 1 and DIDO develops to the
detailed costing (stage 2), and the Authority does not then approve the detailed proposal
(and the SBP demonstrates that it would have delivered VFM), the Authority will
reimburse the SBP’s reasonable costs.

(i) Reasonable costs include any third party costs or reach-back costs the SBP has incurred
as a result of pursuing that initiative beyond stage 1. Such costs are to be agreed prior to
the commencement of the work and capped at that level as being the maximum to be
reimbursed should the Authority not pursue the initiative beyond Stage 2 (subject to
the VFM assessment above)

(j) Unlike the spend to save there is an additional provision which allows for the Authority
to get independent input / advisers to look at the proposals to make sure proposals are
competitive. DIDO is to meet the cost of such advice.

SCHEDULE 25

AUTHORITY DEPENDENCIES

In addition to limbs (a) to (f) of the definition of Authority Dependencies, the additional dependencies set out in this Schedule 25 shall also
constitute Authority Dependencies. The Authority shall have no obligation to perform any dependency unless specifically set out in the
Contract or in this Schedule 25.

The Authority Dependencies shall be provided to the Contractor free of charge (which may be accounted for either within the DIDO budgets
(RDEL or CDEL as appropriate) or within other wider Authority budgets), unless otherwise agreed in writing between the Parties.

Nothing within this Schedule 25 is intended to replace the obligations of the Contractor to undertake the day to day management of DIDO or
and to mitigate any dependency failure.

The Authority shall, in relation to this Contract, perform the Authority Dependencies identified below. Subject to Clause 30, where the
Dependency Requirement listed in this Schedule 25 has not been met, the specified ‘Relief’ shall apply and the Mitigation Plan shall be
implemented. Each Authority Dependency shall be made continually available to the Contractor (including Named Contractors and/or

SCHEDULE 26

TEMPLATE LETTER OF DELEGATION

Dear [Name]

LETTER OF DELEGATION

Introduction

1. As the Top Level Budget Holder for the Defence Infrastructure Organisation
(DIO), I am responsible for the delivery of a range of outputs, directly related
to the MOD’s infrastructure requirements. To discharge my responsibilities,
the Permanent Under Secretary (the MOD’s Principal Accounting Officer) has
delegated to me a range of financial and other authorities. A copy of PUS’s
letter of delegation to me is enclosed.

2. The purpose of this letter is to delegate to you specific authorities to enable


you to deliver the outputs for which you are accountable, consulting me as
appropriate when significant challenges or opportunities arise. You will be
accountable to me for the use and management of these delegations, as set out
in the delegation matrix enclosed.

3. In your role as Chief Executive you are responsible for the delivery of the
agreed outputs of DIDO.

4. Whilst you must exercise discretion, set appropriate limits and follow
government and Departmental guidelines, I encourage you to sub-delegate
your authorities to the maximum extent consistent with sound management,
and within the limits I have set. Sub-delegation must be undertaken formally
in writing to named individuals, who are to acknowledge receipt and confirm
that they understand the terms and extent of their delegated authorities. You
will ensure that a copy of all letters of delegation (down to B1 appointment) is
provided to the Deputy CFO as they are agreed.

Conduct of Business

5. In delivering those outputs, you need to recognise the distinction between the
authority to approve new expenditure, and the authority to execute approved
expenditure within your issued Control Totals.

6. You are personally accountable to me for:

a. Delivering your directed outputs and targets as effectively, efficiently and


economically as possible, while remaining within your issued Control
Totals. You are responsible for ensuring that any direction you give is
within your delegated authority, and has the appropriate approval in place;

OFFICIAL SENSITIVE – COMMERCIAL


Page 1300 

 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

b. Executing the responsibilities and delegations set out at in the attached


delegation matrix;

c. Ensuring that publicly funded assets and other resources are used only in
the public service and that a clear distinction is maintained between public
and non-public funds; if in doubt you must consult the Senior Finance
Officer (SFO) of DIDO; and

d. Ensuring rigorous adherence to MOD’s zero tolerance policy on fraud,


theft, corruption and irregularity.

7. You are responsible for supporting me in ensuring that the systems of internal
control and business risk management across DIDO are operating efficiently
and effectively. Systems of control should ensure:

a. The reliability and integrity of financial and operating information and the
means for capturing and reporting such information;

b. Compliance with policies, plans, procedures and regulations;

c. The safeguarding of assets from loss or theft and ensuring that all losses
are reported and investigated to prevent any recurrence;

d. The economic and efficient use of resources and the achievement of value
for money; and

e. Effective corporate governance, risk management and assurance.

Financial Approvals & Financial Delegations

8. When exercising your approval authority, you must comply with the DIDO
and IAC Control Framework, including development and scrutiny of robust
business cases.

9. You are to ensure that expenditure is committed or incurred only in


accordance with the delegated financial authorities set out in this letter and the
associated guidance material, and through the advice of the SFO. You are fully
accountable for decisions taken within the scope of these delegations.

10. You have authority to execute the delivery of approved contracts, pay bills,
recover costs, make low value purchases through the use of the Government
Procurement Card (GPC) mechanism, and approve expenditure against your
outputs up to your agreed Control Total, and in line with agreed outputs and
targets. I recognise that you will be required to commit expenditure beyond the
financial year prior to formal agreement of your subsequent annual budget and
you have the authority to do so. You should base your decision on your current
issued Control Totals and recognising any future spending restrictions. If you

OFFICIAL SENSITIVE – COMMERCIAL


Page 1301 

 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

have any concerns in this area you will discuss the situation with me prior to
making the commitment.

11. You are to provide a monthly statement of expenditure and a forecast of


outturn for the full year covering all aspects of expenditure within DIDO to the
SFO in accordance with In Year Management Instructions issued by Defence
Resources and the SFO.

Financial scrutiny

12. When exercising your delegated authority, you must ensure that:

a. All expenditure is consistent with the HM Treasury document ‘Managing


Public Money’, including the requirement to conform to International
Accounting Standards, and relevant MOD guidance 1 ;

b. The costs incurred can be met within existing budgetary limits issued to
you as a result of the Annual Budget Cycle, and, in particular, that Control
Totals (as adjusted during the in-year management process) are not
breached;

c. You have approval 2 from the appropriate approving authorities, including


Ministers where necessary;

d. You have complied with the current Cabinet Office / Efficiency Reform
Group (ERG) controls 3 ; noting that these controls are subject to regular
change; and

e. Any issues relating to the use of public funds which risk conflicting with
legislative requirements, HMT’s Managing Public Money or other HMT
guidance, or are novel or contentious or raise issues of financial principle
which are outside your delegated powers, must be raised with the SFO. 4
You do not have the authority to make any commitment until that advice
has been received and the commitment has been authorised.

f. All expenditure proposals and proposals to generate income must be


subject to financial scrutiny against the criteria of regularity and propriety,
value for money, and affordability and be carried out in accordance with
the letter of delegation provided by DG Fin to the SFO of DIDO.

The SFO is responsible for ensuring compliance with the guidance.


Proceeding with expenditure proposals which fail to satisfy the criteria of
regularity and propriety, value for money and affordability, or proceeding with
novel or contentious proposals without seeking the necessary HM Treasury
clearance, may be considered an abuse of financial authority and may result in
formal disciplinary action. If in doubt, you must seek advice from the SFO.

Delegated Staffing Authority and Complementing Powers

13. Your civilian workforce is an essential element of the resource available to


you in support of the delivery of your outputs and key targets. You will be
supported by the DIDO Civilian Workforce Advisor.

14. You will wish to note in particular that:

a. You have been delegated the authority to recruit into all civilian posts
within the agreed organisational design for DIDO. However, you have no
authority to commit to external recruitment without the approval of the
SFO, in line with Departmental policy.

b. You have the authority to create and abolish posts, re-grade existing posts
and/or change the grade mix (up to and including Pay Band B) – subject to
remaining within your resource control total and acting in accordance with
the limits of your delegated complementing powers as set out in JSP 462.
In exercising your authority you must observe the principles and standards
as laid down in the Civil Service Management Code.

c. You have the authority to manage your civilian workforce in accordance


with all the relevant Civil Service and Departmental regulations, UK
employment legislation and, in the case of Locally Engaged Civilians
(LECs) and UK Based Civilians serving overseas, local employment law
and other legal provisions or binding arrangements.

Delegated Commercial Authority

15. You have the authority to execute contractual commitments from the resources
available within your issued Control Totals. However the authority to enter
into any arrangement, in whatever form, which places a commitment upon the
MOD such as placing, amending contracts, or dealing with claims arising, can
only be exercised by staff holding written authority from the MOD
Commercial Director through DIDO Hd Commercial. This letter does not
convey any commercial authority. Any sub-delegations you make should
ensure you maintain complete clarity and separation between financial
authority and Commercial authority.

16. Contracts or arrangements that have been negotiated on a pan-Government


basis to secure best value for money for the public purse must be used by all
procurement staff as the default option. In exceptional circumstances, where

OFFICIAL SENSITIVE – COMMERCIAL


Page 1303 

 
OFFICIAL SENSITIVE - COMMERCIAL

an alternative source has been identified and considered to provide better


overall value for money for the Department, an exemption may be sought.
You should seek the advice of DIDO commercial staff as soon as you have
identified a requirement in order that they can advise on the most appropriate
Contracting route.

Business Continuity

17. You should ensure that appropriate Business Continuity plans and processes
are in place to manage the risks associated with the continuation of business 5
in your area of responsibility. The SFO is the senior responsible person for
Business Continuity in DIDO.

Parliamentary & Public Business, Advice to Ministers and Presentation

18. In exercising your duties, you should be mindful of potential parliamentary,


political, policy and presentational issues and the interests of other government
departments and should ensure that Departmental instructions, guidance and
standards in this area are adhered to. Where necessary the SFO should be
consulted for clarification and assistance.

Freedom of Information and Data Protection

19. In the event of a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, you
should provide the information requested accurately and within the time
constraints allowed as guided by the SFO.

20. You should ensure that the processing of information relating to individuals
(both Service and civilian), including the obtaining, recording, holding or use
or disclosure of such information within DIDO, complies with relevant
guidance. 6 The Chief Information and Process Officer (CIPO) has been
appointed as Data Protection Officer, Chief Information Officer and Senior
Information Risk Owner (SIRO), and is the principal TLB source of
authoritative advice on this issue.

Health and Safety

21. Responsibility for the provision of a safe working environment rests with us
all. Wherever DIDO staff or their contractors are employed they are required
to follow the site H&S rules and requirements at all times, and where DIDO is
the Hd of Establishment appropriate arrangements should be set in place and
rigorously applied. This in no way removes the duty of care from the chain of
at command all levels and their obligations in respect of the Health and Safety
at Work etc Act 1974 and associated legislation. The SHEP requirements for

DIDO posts are set out in the CE’s SHEP Organisation & Arrangement
Statement. 7

22. In the case of multi-occupier sites, the lead unit, normally the headquarters or
the largest unit, is to set up arrangements to ensure that there is co-operation
between the lead and all lodger units, including contractors. The safety and
environmental protection command and control arrangements will normally
follow those of the lead headquarters or unit. Arrangements are to be covered
by formal letters of agreement for each such site.

23. I have copied this letter to the Senior Finance Officer and will publish it, and
any subsequent amendments, on the DIDO Intranet. All subsequent letters of
delegation to SCS and military equivalents that you issue will also be
published.

24. Finally, you should write to me to confirm that you understand the terms and
extent of your delegated authorities and the accountability that they entail.

Yours sincerely,
