UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, facilitated by UK Shared Business Services Ltd on behalf of UK Research and Innovation, is titled "CSP25015 - Research Equipment". It falls under the 'goods' category with a focus area on laboratory, optical, and precision equipment, excluding glasses. The procurement has been concluded without competition due to technical reasons, indicating that only the specific supplier, Emerson Automation Solutions DAMCOS A/S, can provide the required Rosemount 520's Sensors. Located in Swindon, United Kingdom, this contract is in the award stage and was activated with a total gross value of £15,978, effective from the 2nd of May 2025 to the 1st of August 2025. The process was managed through direct procurement, below the threshold, bypassing competitive tendering.

This procurement presents opportunities for growth primarily for businesses specialising in precision instruments and research equipment. Large companies like Emerson Automation Solutions DAMCOS A/S, which can provide niche technical solutions, are particularly well-suited to such contracts. The focus on direct procurement underscores the necessity for high specialised technical capabilities, suggesting that firms with unique product offerings in laboratory equipment could significantly benefit from similar purchasing requirements in the public sector. Engaging in such procurements may establish a foothold in public sector contracts and enhance business profiles within this specialised industry.
