UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation bought the supply and replacement of an R26 generator. This is a goods contract for a generator, classified under CPV 31120000. UK Shared Business Services Ltd managed the procurement on UKRI’s behalf. Delivery is in the United Kingdom; no more specific delivery location is identified in the procurement details. The requirement centres on replacing an existing generator rather than a wider programme of works or services.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Ian Webb Engineering Limited. UKRI used a below-threshold limited competition. There was one lot, covering the generator supply and replacement. The contract was signed on 29 September 2026 and runs from 30 September to 30 December 2026. Its value is £38,754.20 excluding VAT (£46,505.04 including VAT). The award is active and the contract is active. The published procurement data does not set out separate evaluation criteria.

For suppliers considering similar requirements from UKRI, this award shows demand for the replacement of an R26 generator through a limited competition, managed by UK Shared Business Services Ltd. A credible competitor would need to supply a suitable generator and carry out its replacement, with the engineering capability to deliver a focused equipment contract. The selected supplier, Ian Webb Engineering Limited, is an SME, showing that a smaller engineering business was capable of meeting this requirement. The work is a single-lot goods purchase rather than a multi-lot programme, so suppliers should be equipped to manage the supply and replacement requirement as one package. The procurement provides evidence of UKRI’s generator replacement needs and the type of supplier selected.
