Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation required a comprehensive data and analysis platform: software and information systems to support its data-related and analytical work. The requirement was purchased by UK Shared Business Services Limited, which acts as the buyer for this procurement. The delivery location is in Swindon, at postcode area SN2. This is a goods procurement focused on supplying a platform rather than delivering standalone consultancy or general information-technology services. The scope is described at a high level as a comprehensive data and analysis platform, so relevant suppliers are those providing integrated software capable of supporting data access, management, analysis and related information-system needs. The requirement was structured as a call-off from the G Cloud 14 framework.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded. The contract was awarded to Moody's Analytics UK Limited on 11 October 2025 following a selective call-off from the G Cloud 14 framework, using a longlist and shortlist exercise. The awarded contract value is £353,820.60 including the recorded variation, which increased the value by £176,910.30. The contract runs from 16 November 2025 to 15 November 2027; the end date was extended to 15 November 2027 under the original contract. The earlier tender record showed a minimum value of £176,910.30 and a maximum estimated value of £353,820.60. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates demand from UK Research and Innovation for a substantial, integrated data and analysis platform sourced through the UK public-sector G Cloud route. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need a mature software product covering data and analytical workflows, with the resilience, functionality and implementation capability expected for an organisation operating at research scale. Suppliers should be able to explain how their platform supports complex information systems in practical use, provide evidence of relevant delivery experience, and work effectively through a framework call-off involving longlisting and shortlisting. The procurement was marked as suitable for SMEs, so specialist smaller providers with a strong platform proposition may be competitive alongside larger technology firms.
