Summary of the contracting process

The Centre for Process Innovation Limited (CPI), a public authority in central government, is inviting bids for a tender titled "CPI USA Business Development Support for HealthTech and Materials". The focus is on providing business development support services in the USA, particularly in the East Coast and West Coast regions. This tender, with a deadline for submission on 27th February 2026, is in its tender stage and aims to accelerate market engagement and pipeline growth within the HealthTech and advanced materials industry. It is structured under an open procurement method, intended for services valued at £80,000, with potential extensions up to 2034. The procurement process includes the establishment of a framework agreement with both opened and closed competition elements.

This tender presents significant opportunities for agencies specialising in business development consultancy services and technical support within the HealthTech and advanced materials sectors. With CPI aiming to build networks and business opportunities in these regional US markets, companies capable of facilitating strategic introductions and supporting CPI staff visits will find this contract particularly beneficial. Businesses with expertise in engaging stakeholders in the New England area or those focused solely on HealthTech in the West Coast could leverage this opportunity for growth, given the emphasis on quality over price in award criteria (70% quality, 30% price). This is an excellent chance for consultants to expand their influence in international markets while supporting CPI's strategic objectives.
