UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

UK Research & Innovation (UKRI), through its Medical Research Council procurement function, procured side-stream filtration for the LMS building. The requirement is for filtering apparatus and associated provision to support filtration within that building. It is classified as goods rather than works or services. The awarded item is described as filtering apparatus, with delivery in the UK. This is a focused requirement for a supplier able to provide the relevant filtration equipment for a research or laboratory facility. The buyer is a central government public authority, so suppliers serving public-sector research, laboratory or technical facilities may find the requirement relevant, particularly where they provide side-stream water filtration equipment and related delivery capability.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. There was one completed lot. UKRI awarded the contract to Enwa Water Technology AS, trading as Enwa Water Technology UK, on 17 September 2026; the contract was also signed on that date. The contract is active from 17 September 2026 to 30 November 2026. Its value is £50,698 excluding the stated gross amount of £60,837.60, both in GBP. The award covers the filtering apparatus for the LMS building. The recorded procurement route was limited competition rather than an open tender, indicating that the buyer selected suppliers for this below-threshold requirement.

For competing suppliers, this award confirms a specific UKRI requirement for side-stream filtration equipment at an LMS research facility. A credible future competitor would need to supply filtering apparatus suitable for the buyer’s technical building environment and demonstrate that it can meet a focused equipment requirement for a public research organisation. The selected supplier is recorded as a large business, which indicates that the buyer accepted a provider with established organisational capacity for this type of supply. Businesses operating in water-treatment equipment, industrial filtration or laboratory and research-facility infrastructure may therefore be well placed, provided they can offer the relevant side-stream filtration solution and manage delivery for UKRI facilities. The limited-competition route also makes prior visibility among suitable suppliers commercially relevant.
