UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) procured works to divert gas and water services at the ROE site, as part of the 1894 Building project under requirement REQ-24-0142. The scope is ancillary pipeline and cable works, covering the diversion of existing gas and water infrastructure so that building-related activity can proceed. This is a construction and utilities-infrastructure requirement rather than a supply-only contract or consultancy. UKRI is the public-sector buyer. The work is associated with UKRI’s site in the UK, with the supplier based in Falkirk. The procurement is classified as works, and the requirement was arranged as a single lot.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. Water and Pipeline Services LTD was selected for the single lot, and the contract is active. The contract was signed on 18 September 2026 and runs from 18 September to 18 December 2026. Its value is £197,650 excluding VAT, or £237,180 including VAT. The requirement was evaluated through the buyer’s direct-award route rather than an open tender. The award covers the pipeline and cable ancillary works described for the ROE site gas and water diversions. The recorded contracting process is complete, with the selected supplier responsible for delivery during the stated contract period.

This procurement shows demand from UKRI for specialist utility-diversion works supporting a research and technology site. A credible future competitor would need practical experience of gas and water service diversions, pipeline and cable ancillary works, construction-site coordination and safe delivery around an active or developing building project. The requirement also indicates the need to mobilise a capable works team for a concentrated delivery period and to manage interfaces between utility infrastructure and building activity. Suppliers with proven utilities-construction capacity, appropriate operational controls and evidence of delivering comparable diversion projects for public-sector or complex sites would be well placed when UKRI next requires similar work. Understanding UKRI’s direct, below-threshold purchasing route would also help firms assess how this buyer engages the market.
