Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Web of Science APHA Citation" is being conducted by the Defra Network eTendering Portal, located in London, England. This contract falls under the 'Research services' category, with a total value of £28,350. The contract period is set to commence on 15 November 2016 and will conclude on 14 November 2017. The tender was officially awarded on 15 December 2016, with details published shortly after on 22 December 2016. Notably, suppliers interested in participating in this tender were required to register on the Bravo portal, as Defra utilises e-tendering through this platform.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in research and software services, particularly those operating within the academic and citation analysis sectors. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be well-positioned to compete, given their agility and tailored services that could meet the specific requirements of the contract. The successful supplier, Thomson Reuters (Scientific) Inc, demonstrates that established firms can leverage their expertise; however, there remains ample space for innovative contenders looking to make an impact in the research services market.
