Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation, located at Polaris House, Swindon, has completed a procurement process titled "GSS25151 - Sensors" within the industry category of goods. The procurement stage is 'Award', and it involved a limited competition exercise. The contract details were published on 12th March 2025, following the successful awarding to Eleven-I Ltd, which is set to run from 11th March 2025 to 30th June 2025. The procurement method was below threshold and utilised limited competition, with UK Shared Business Services Ltd acting as the procuring entity.

This tender represents an opportunity for businesses dealing in electronic components, specifically sensors. It showcases the potential for growth through government contracts, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Companies like Eleven-I Ltd, a small business based in Charlesworth, demonstrate the viability for smaller entities to secure public sector contracts. Suppliers of sensors or related technologies, who can deliver within the UK, would be well-suited to compete in similar future tenders.
