Chaps
I don't wish to sound pessimistic but.......
I suggest a look at the full announcement before popping too many more champagne corks (sadly all I could find was at):
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main...portaltop.html
If the link doesn't work the salient section is:
Mr Hoon said the MoD would now hold "single bidder negotiations" with the European consortium aimed at concluding a PFI contract as soon as possible.
"A final decision on whether or not to proceed with a PFI contract will not be taken until these have been satisfactorily concluded," he said.
So no actual winner yet then!!
