Summary of the contracting process

The Valuation Office Agency, a public authority in central government based in London, has completed the procurement stage for the provision of a digital data licence agreement for Mining Hazards Data in England and Wales. The contract, titled "Mining Hazards Data, England and Wales, 12 x Months Licence Subscription (2025-26)," has been awarded to the British Geological Survey (BGS), a component of UK Research and Innovation, located in Keyworth, Nottingham. The procurement process was conducted without competition under a direct award method due to its below-threshold status. The agreement is set to span from 30 June 2025 to 29 June 2026, and it aligns with services in the industry category of subscription services.

This awarded contract presents opportunities for businesses involved in data provision and analysis to engage with public sector organisations for similar subcontracting opportunities. Companies with capabilities in digital data management, particularly those experienced in providing geospatial datasets, could find valuable growth avenues by collaborating with existing primary contractors such as BGS. Furthermore, large-scale enterprises, which specialise in the Built Environment and Minerals Survey sectors, could effectively leverage their expertise to meet the continuous needs within the scope of Rights to Buy Redeterminations projects led by the VOA, thereby fostering long-term collaborative opportunities.
