UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust procured research services for research grant salary costs. The requirement concerns salary expenditure associated with a research grant, rather than the purchase of physical goods or construction works. The named supplier is the University of Leeds, indicating a requirement involving an established research organisation. The procurement is connected to the Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, with the buyer based in Leeds. The available scope identifies research services under CPV 73110000 and relates to one requirement. This opportunity is therefore most relevant to universities, research institutions and other organisations able to undertake publicly funded research activity and administer or provide staff salary costs within a grant-funded arrangement.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 24 July 2026 and runs from 24 July 2026 to 23 July 2027. Its value is £42,750 gross. The selected supplier is the University of Leeds, and the award is active. The tender itself is recorded as complete, with one completed lot. The requirement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender. The recorded requirement covers research grant salary costs, while the contract title is Research grant- research grant salary costs. No separate award date is recorded; the contract signing date marks the formalisation of the award.

This procurement is evidence of demand from Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust for research-service support funded through a grant and involving salary costs. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need demonstrable capability in research delivery, links to suitably qualified research staff and the administrative controls needed to account for grant-funded salary expenditure. Experience of working with an NHS trust or university research environment would be relevant, particularly where responsibilities span research activity and employment or payroll-related costs. The selected supplier, the University of Leeds, shows that the buyer accepted a large higher-education research organisation for this requirement. Suppliers with comparable institutional research capacity and the ability to manage a defined, relatively small research-services arrangement would be the closest match.
