Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation bought works to seal cracks and repair water ingress. The requirement concerns construction and repair activity associated with bridge, tunnel, shaft or subway infrastructure, based on the stated classification. The buying organisation is UK Research and Innovation, with UK Shared Business Services Ltd acting as the procuring and shared-service organisation. Delivery is stated as being in the United Kingdom. This is a single works requirement under the CSP26712 procurement. The scope is focused on physical infrastructure repairs rather than general building maintenance, consultancy, design services or routine facilities management. Businesses should therefore assess their experience in specialist civil engineering repairs and waterproofing-related construction work before considering the relevance of this buyer’s requirement.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was evaluated on value. One lot was completed, with the award made to PikeHaven Limited. The award is active and the contract is active. The award date is not separately recorded, but the contract was signed on 3 August 2026. The contract period runs from 30 August 2026 to 30 November 2026. Its value is £23,299 excluding VAT, or £27,958 including VAT. UK Research and Innovation is the buyer, and UK Shared Business Services Ltd managed the procurement. This outcome records a completed limited competition rather than an invitation to submit bids.

This purchase shows UK Research and Innovation’s demand for practical infrastructure repair work delivered through a below-threshold limited competition route. A credible competitor for this type of requirement would need specialist capability in crack sealing and resolving water ingress, together with the workforce, equipment and site-management capacity to carry out construction repairs on bridge, tunnel, shaft or subway assets. Relevant experience should demonstrate safe, reliable delivery of comparable civil engineering or waterproofing works, rather than general building services alone. The selected supplier was a small or medium-sized enterprise, indicating that a focused specialist business can be suitable for this scale and type of requirement. The buyer’s shared-service procurement arrangement is also relevant to future market engagement.
