Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) has concluded a procurement process for a public contract titled "UKRI-5814 - Regenerative Tm: YLF amplifier," under the industry category of goods with main procurement emphasis on Research, testing, and scientific technical simulators. Based in Swindon, Wiltshire, UKRI sought suppliers for this amplifier, aiming to provide outputs of 5mJ/15ns at 10Hz. The procurement was completed via a limited competition process below the threshold for extensive competition. This contract was awarded to Jorg Korner t/a Korner Lasertechnologie on 17th February 2026. The contract remains active, with terms set from 17th February to 27th March 2026, and a contract value of EUR 100,300.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for suppliers specialising in scientific and technical equipment, particularly those with expertise in laser technology. Given the limited competition method, businesses in niche markets or possessing unique technical capabilities are well-positioned to explore similar opportunities. The successful bidder, Korner Lasertechnologie, based in Germany, exemplifies such capability in scientific technical supplies. Potential vendors should focus on developing diverse technical equipment to cater to public authorities like UKRI, thereby fostering business growth through strategic alignments with central government entities.
