Summary of the contracting process

The contract titled "Provision of Facilities for Human Challenge Characterisation Study" was awarded by the Business Energy and Industrial Strategy, based in London, England. This procurement is classified under research laboratory services with an estimated value of £3,660,117. The tender process was conducted as a direct procurement via a single tender action, and the contract period began on 19 October 2020 and runs until 31 August 2021.
