UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NPL Management Limited, based at the National Physical Laboratory in Teddington, procured team and individual employee recognition awards. The requirement covers the supply of vouchers, gifts, certificates and related reward items for staff recognition and engagement programmes. This is a goods opportunity focused on presents and rewards, rather than consultancy, event management or general human resources services. Delivery is required across the United Kingdom, so relevant suppliers need to serve employees and teams nationally. The buyer is a public undertaking operating from Teddington. The requirement would suit businesses that provide employee reward products, voucher schemes, branded recognition items or an integrated rewards fulfilment service.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a below-threshold procedure as a single lot. Blackhawk Network EMEA Limited was selected as the supplier. The award is active. The contract was signed on 10 August 2026 and runs for one day, ending on 10 August 2026. Its value is £10,000,000 excluding VAT and £12,000,000 including VAT. The contract is for the full team and individual recognition requirement, including vouchers, gifts, certificates and related reward items. The published outcome identifies the supplier and the completed status, but does not set out an award date or evaluation criteria. NPL Management Limited is the buyer and the service covers delivery throughout the United Kingdom.

This procurement demonstrates substantial demand from NPL Management Limited for employee recognition products delivered nationally through a single supplier. A credible future competitor would need to provide both individual and team awards, with a broad catalogue covering vouchers, gifts and certificates, and the operational ability to fulfil varied reward choices for staff. Suppliers should be able to support recognition and engagement programmes rather than offering only isolated promotional products. Experience managing employee reward schemes, reliable ordering and fulfilment processes, and nationwide delivery would strengthen a supplier’s position when this requirement returns to market. Businesses in the employee benefits, voucher, rewards, gifting or recognition sectors may find the buyer and requirement relevant for market monitoring.
