The Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (DSTL) has awarded a contract titled "4 Year PhD" under the industry category of research and development services. This procurement, carried out via a single tender action due to its value being below the threshold, was awarded on 27th August 2024, and has a project duration from 1st October 2024 to 31st March 2028. The contract is valued at £75,000 and is set to take place in Salisbury, England. The procurement stage is now complete, and the awarded supplier is the University of Strathclyde.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses engaged in research and development services, particularly those with capabilities in consultancy and academic collaboration.
