Summary of the contracting process

In the recently completed procurement process, UK Research & Innovation (UKRI), based in Swindon, United Kingdom, has engaged in a direct, below-threshold procurement without competition. This was for the "UKRI-4986 ORRCAM System Hardware" project associated with the OYO CRI-LEVEE initiative, focusing on the design and delivery of system field hardware. The process reached the award stage with Orrcam Ltd, a large-scale supplier located in London, being awarded a contract valued at £36,768. The contract commenced on 15th May 2025 and is set to conclude on 24th October 2025, within the goods category, specifically targeting hardware.

This tender represents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in manufacturing and supplying specialised hardware for scientific or research purposes. It is particularly beneficial for large, agile companies that can promptly meet the tailored specifications needed by government research bodies such as UKRI. Businesses with established delivery capabilities within the UK, especially those adept in handling direct procurement processes, would find this kind of tender well-suited to their operational strengths and could leverage such projects to expand their footprint in government contracts.
