Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) commissioned security door remedial works for the National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC). The requirement is classified as works and covers the repair or improvement of security doors, including associated door installation activity and surveillance and security systems or devices. UKRI is a central government public authority, based in Swindon, Wiltshire. The selected supplier is Booth Industries International Ltd, a large UK business specialising in industrial and security-related door work. The requirement is relevant to contractors able to assess, repair, remediate or install security doors and to work with connected security equipment in a research or other controlled-access environment. It is a single requirement rather than a multi-lot programme.

The procurement has been completed and the contract awarded directly without competition under a below-threshold procedure. Booth Industries International Ltd was awarded the work on 7 September 2026. The contract was signed on the same date and runs from 7 September 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £37,421 excluding VAT, or £44,905.20 including VAT. The contract is active, while the tender is complete. The award covers the single security-door remedial-works requirement. The published procurement information does not set out a scored evaluation model; the route used was direct award without competition. This outcome identifies the buyer, requirement, delivery period and scale of spend for businesses monitoring future UKRI security and estates work.

This award demonstrates demand from UKRI for specialist security-door remedial works supporting the National Quantum Computing Centre. A credible future competitor would need practical capability in diagnosing and correcting defects in security doors, carrying out installation or remedial works, and supplying or integrating surveillance and security devices where required. Experience of controlled-access, research, industrial or other high-security premises would help demonstrate that the business can work safely around sensitive facilities and maintain security during remedial activity. The awarded supplier is a large business, indicating that relevant capacity, operational resilience and the ability to manage a defined works package are commercially important. Door manufacturers, specialist security contractors and firms combining physical security with associated systems expertise are the closest fit for this requirement.
