Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence has awarded a direct contract for research services titled “Contract for Research Into Advanced Ageing - An ADVANCE Bolt On Study”. This project aims to explore whether major trauma accelerates the ageing process and if it can be alleviated by physical activity using the ADVANCE cohort data. The contract, valued at £1, was awarded to the University of Birmingham and will be conducted between 1st September 2024 and 31st August 2026. The procurement method used was a single tender action (below threshold), a procurement stage that is now complete, with key activities taking place in the United Kingdom.

This tender provides an excellent opportunity for organisations involved in advanced research services, focusing particularly on ageing and trauma studies. Although the contract was awarded to a large institution, businesses specialising in scientific research, especially those with expertise in ageing or physical activity interventions, should note the types of projects and research the Ministry of Defence may procure. Such awareness can help potential bidders prepare for future opportunities to collaborate on projects that require specialised knowledge and skills in these domains.
