The procurement falls under the services category and relates to Research and Development consultancy, with delivery expected across multiple territories including the United Kingdom, Europe, and British Oversea Territories. The procurement method utilised was selective, calling off from a dynamic purchasing system, and the initial tender period ended on the 16th of January, 2026, marking the award stage of the process.
