UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involving UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) is centred around the renewal of Ansys Electronics Enterprise and Premium services for the 2026 to 2027 period. The contract award has been finalised under a direct procurement method below the threshold, without competition. The UKRI, functioning as the buying organisation, operates from Polaris House in Swindon, Wiltshire. The main procurement category is services, specifically software supply services, with delivery set in the United Kingdom, particularly in the region UKJ14. The contract was awarded on 9th July 2026 to ANSYS UK Ltd, marking the award and contract status as complete and active, respectively.

This tender provides an excellent opportunity for businesses engaged in software supply services, particularly those that can operate under direct procurement methods. Although this specific procurement was awarded without competition, similar opportunities could benefit large businesses like ANSYS UK Ltd, which are equipped to support central government entities such as UKRI. The procurement process highlights the potential growth associated with servicing public authorities in specialised IT and software sectors.
