Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process undertaken by UK Research and Innovation, a prominent public authority under the central government, involves the contract titled "CSP26291 - Tier 2 transformer and feeder pillar". It focuses on supplying transformers, specifically a Tier 2 transformer and a 1600amp feeder pillar, to their location in Swindon, United Kingdom. The procurement stage is complete, as indicated by the award and contract tags in the document. This process followed a limited competition procurement method, concluding with the contract signed on 4th March 2026, and set to be active from 5th March 2026 to 30th September 2026. The total contract value is £32,255.80, grossing up to £38,706.96.

This tender represents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the production and supply of transformers and associated electrical equipment. Given the limited competition procurement method, a well-established business, such as large enterprises with capabilities in manufacturing electrical goods, would be well-suited to compete in similar tenders. Bojen Electrical Ltd, the awarded supplier for this contract, exemplifies a large-scale operation capable of fulfilling such requirements, signalling an opportunity for similar companies to grow their presence in the public sector markets by targeting future, analogous tenders within the UK and potentially expanding their offerings in central government contracts.
