UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process concluded by UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) involved the direct award of a service contract renewal, identified as CSP25184, to VWS (UK) Ltd T/A Veolia Water Technologies. Categorised under repair and maintenance services, this contract does not involve competition due to technical reasons, as only Veolia can furnish the required services. The procurement, managed by UK Shared Business Services Ltd, took place entirely below threshold without competition. Located in Swindon, UKRI operates as a public authority within the central government sector. The contract, valued at £14,377.92, commenced on 17th July 2025 and is set to conclude on 30th July 2026, with its official award date noted as 16th July 2025.

This tender arrangement provides a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in bespoke technical services or repair and maintenance, particularly those capable of meeting specific technical requirements and offering non-standard solutions tailored to government contracts. Although this contract was directly awarded due to the unique capabilities of the supplier, the information can guide similar organisations in recognising niche sectors where they can compete, should similar opportunities arise. Large enterprises with a focus on service technology, especially those with existing government engagement, may find such opportunities conducive to expanding their government contract portfolio.
