UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cell Therapy Catapult Limited procured engineering support services for the Stevenage Manufacturing Innovation Centre (SMIC). The requirement is for specialist engineering resource supporting engineering and project delivery activities, delivered in line with an agreed scope of works. This is a professional engineering services contract rather than a construction project or supply of equipment. The buyer is a public authority based in London, while the named delivery site is the manufacturing innovation centre in Stevenage. The relevant classification is CPV 71300000, engineering services. The procurement concerns one service requirement and one supplier was selected for it. Businesses with experience providing engineering personnel and project delivery support to manufacturing, innovation or technically demanding environments would find the subject matter most relevant.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Cell Therapy Catapult Limited used a below-threshold limited competition. J D Electrical (Herts) Limited was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 30 July 2026 and runs from 30 November 2026 to 30 May 2027, for six months. Its value is £66,000 excluding VAT and £79,200 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The published requirement described the six-month service at £79,200 including VAT. This was a single-lot procurement, covering engineering services for SMIC. The available outcome data identifies the selected supplier and contract value, but does not provide a separate award date or detailed scoring breakdown.

Although this contract has already been awarded, it gives engineering support providers a clear indication of the capability Cell Therapy Catapult Limited requires at SMIC. A credible competitor would need to supply specialist engineering resource and support project delivery against an agreed scope of works, rather than offer generic consultancy alone. The selected supplier is recorded as an SME, showing that the requirement was deliverable by a smaller business. Relevant firms should be able to demonstrate practical engineering competence, dependable resource mobilisation and the ability to work within a manufacturing innovation centre. Experience coordinating engineering activity with project delivery would strengthen a future response, particularly where the buyer needs focused support for a defined operational requirement.
