Mr. Hancock: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what the total cost to his Department was of the supply of 226 LH-40C
hand-held laser range-finders to the Army; how many units have been purchased; which companies bid for this contract; if the bid by
the Eloptro Division of Denel company was the lowest; and if he will make a statement. [124883]
Dr. Moonie: The total cost to the Department, including three years support, is in the region of £2 million, but the details are a
matter of commercial confidentiality. Bids were received from four companies in November 1999: Eloptro, a division of Denel; Leica
Geosystems Ltd.; Litton Laser Systems; and Simrad Optronics Ltd.
Following a detailed technical evaluation including extensive trials of all candidate equipment only Eloptro provided a compliant
tender and this, therefore, was the lowest acceptable bid. A contract for the supply and support of the 226 systems was awarded to
Eloptro on 23 March 2000. The unsuccessful companies have been given the opportunity for a formal de-brief and, while all have
indicated that they wish to take up this offer, only Leica have done so to date.
