UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

This procurement process, initiated by UK Research and Innovation, focuses on supplying a DDT parallel debugger, primarily within the computer equipment and IT services industry category. Located in Swindon, UK, this contract was awarded with a direct procurement method due to a lack of competition for technical reasons, concluding without open competition. The contract's completion was announced on 25 March 2026, with the procurement stage now being 'Award'. The one-year contract, starting from 4 March 2026, is valued at £20,020. The main delivery address is within the United Kingdom.

The tender offers potential growth opportunities for businesses specialising in computer equipment and IT services given the focus on technical expertise. Linaro Ltd, a small to medium-sized enterprise based in Cambridge, has been selected as the supplier, indicating that SMEs in similar fields may be well-suited for such contracts. Companies with expertise in developing or supplying niche technical products could benefit from closely monitoring similar procurement opportunities. Establishing connection with organisations like UK Research and Innovation or other central government authorities, seeking direct awards in the tech industry, might present additional growth avenues.
