Summary of the contracting process

The UK Research and Innovation, a central government public authority based in Swindon, has completed a procurement process titled "CSP25008 - EMBO Lab Leadership Course Costs." This process falls under the services industry category, with specific focus on specialist training services, and covers the United Kingdom region. The procurement was carried out using the direct procurement method due to an absence of competition for technical reasons, and only EMBO Solutions GmbH was deemed capable of fulfilling the contract requirements. The contracting stage has been concluded, with the contract signed on 28th April 2025 and covering a period from 30th April to 30th November 2025. The total contract value is €43,000.

This tender presents a favourable opportunity for large, specialised training service providers looking to collaborate with scientific and central government entities. While the procurement process was completed without competition due to its specialised technical nature, similar opportunities may arise for businesses that can demonstrate unique capabilities in delivering niche training solutions. Companies that can offer innovative and highly specialised educational services within scientific disciplines are particularly well-suited to compete in such tenders which demand technical expertise and sector-specific knowledge.
