The procurement process titled "CSP25103 - Annual Vessel Inspection" was conducted by UK Research and Innovation, located in Swindon, United Kingdom. This falls under the services industry category, specifically maritime safety inspection services. The procurement stage is complete, and it was conducted without competition due to technical reasons. The contract was awarded on 24th July 2025 and is scheduled to commence on 1st September 2025, concluding by 30th September 2025.
