UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) has concluded a procurement process pertaining to the design, disassembly, machining, welding, fabrication, cleaning, painting, and installation of a Non-Return Valve. The contract, titled "GSS25253 - Non Return Valve", falls under the services category and covers various technical functions requiring specialised skills. The procurement, managed by UK Shared Business Services Ltd., was executed without competition due to the technical constraints that only a specific supplier could meet. The key contract period spanned from April 1st to April 30th, 2025.

This tender highlights a significant opportunity for specialised engineering firms, particularly those experienced in valve fabrication and installation, to explore exclusive government contracts. Notably, the contract was awarded to Fieldhouse Engineering Ltd, a small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) based in Taunton. Businesses capable of delivering high-technical standard services and looking to collaborate with central government departments like UKRI can find this sector lucrative, paving the way for substantial business growth in tightly specialised industrial services.
