The delivery location is stated as the United Kingdom.

The procurement is complete and awarded to RSK Environment Limited after a below-threshold limited competition. It was a single-lot process. The contract was signed on 23 September 2026 and runs from 23 September to 31 December 2026. Its value is £33,211.50 excluding VAT (£39,853.80 including VAT).

For suppliers assessing similar future work for UK Research and Innovation, this award indicates demand for structural opening-up and investigation services, procured through a limited competition. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate the practical capability to carry out opening-up work and the engineering expertise to investigate and assess structures. The scope also points to the need to manage both site-based investigation and the technical analysis it requires. The awarded supplier is a large environmental services company, showing that a provider with broader environmental and engineering capabilities can deliver this kind of requirement.
