Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) bought BPM RAFT, a supply of electronic components, for delivery in the United Kingdom. UKRI is the buying organisation; UK Shared Business Services Ltd managed the procurement. The stated requirement is limited to BPM RAFT, with no further product specification or use described in the procurement information. This is a goods contract rather than a services or construction requirement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to TRIPLES APPAREL LIMITED. UKRI used a below-threshold limited competition, with the award made following a competitive quotation procedure. There was one lot. The contract was signed on 24 September 2026, runs from 25 September to 9 November 2026, and is active. Its stated value is £17,767 excluding VAT (£21,320.40 including VAT).

This award shows UKRI purchasing electronic components through a below-threshold limited competition based on quotations. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to supply the specified components and provide clear, competitive quotations through a limited competition process. The selected supplier is recorded as an SME, indicating that a smaller business was capable of winning this procurement. The requirement is a goods supply rather than a service or works contract, and the recorded delivery location is the United Kingdom. Suppliers whose business includes supplying electronic components, and who can meet UKRI’s component requirements and delivery needs, are the closest match when this buyer next purchases BPM RAFT.
