Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "DDaT25430 - Risk Prevention Platform Licences" was conducted by UK Research and Innovation, a central government public authority based in Swindon, United Kingdom. This process, initiated on 8th December 2025, reached the award stage with a contract active from this date until 7th December 2026. The procurement fell under the "goods" category, specifically targeting software package and information systems, without competition due to technical reasons. The contracting authority, UK Research and Innovation, awarded the contract directly to Risk Alert 247 Ltd, located in Dalkeith, Scotland. The contract is valued at £24,000, excluding VAT, with the overall gross amount being £28,400.

This tender offers substantial business growth opportunities for suppliers specialising in software and information systems, especially those with niche capabilities in risk prevention platforms. Although Risk Alert 247 Ltd was awarded the contract directly, similar businesses, particularly SMEs with a focus on technological solutions, can benefit by engaging with public authorities where specific technical requirements align with their offerings. Such procurement processes, although below threshold and without competition in this instance, highlight the importance of maintaining unique technical competencies to meet specialised government needs effectively.
