Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process, initiated by UK Shared Business Services Limited, involves the tender titled "UK SBS CR20036 Evaluation of the Small Business Research Initiative." This procurement falls under the category of Research and Development Services, specifically within the South West region of the United Kingdom. The contractual period commenced on 29 April 2020 and extends until 31 March 2021, with the total contract value set at £218,351.13. The procurement method employed was selective, with calls-off from a framework agreement.
