Lot Information

Lot 1

The UK Research Partnership Investment Fund is a PS900m+ competitive capital scheme designed to support higher education research facilities. Research England, who manage the fund on behalf of UKRI and the devolved nations, are seeking suppliers to deliver an evaluation of the fund.
