Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "UKSAC25_0084 - NSpOC Operational Analysis" has been concluded under the UK Space Agency's RM6235 - Space Enabled and Geospatial Services Framework. Managed by UK Shared Business Services Limited, headquartered in Swindon, England, this award notice pertains to research services in the United Kingdom. The procurement was conducted through a selective 'Call-off' method from a dynamic purchasing system. Initially planned to end on 27th February 2026, the contract's value was increased and the expiry date was extended to 30th April 2026. Key stakeholders include Know Consulting Limited as the supplier. This award, updated as of 11th March 2026, reflects a procurement stage previously in the award phase from 7th November 2025.
