Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) has completed the procurement process for the license of iLevel, a research service, under the title "UKRI-4746 - iLevel". The procurement was categorised under the services industry with CPV code 73110000, and it took place in the United States. The procurement method used was limited, specifically an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, due to the absence of competition for technical reasons. The contract was signed with iLevel Solutions on 4th March 2025, with a total value of £42,665 GBP.

This tender creates significant opportunities for businesses that provide niche and technically specialised research services, particularly those capable of offering unique solutions not readily available in the open market. Companies similar to iLevel Solutions, especially large-scale suppliers in the research domain, are well-suited to compete for such contracts. The procurement highlights the scope for businesses to secure government contracts through tailored and unique offerings in specialised fields.
