UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation procured temporary scaffolding to meet the requirements of engineering design drawing 5979-07-01-02-001. This is a supply of construction structures and materials, with the scaffold required to comply fully with the specified design. UK Shared Business Services Ltd managed the procurement as UKRI’s shared service provider. Delivery is in the United Kingdom; no more specific delivery location is stated. The requirement was arranged as a single lot.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to PDL Access Ltd. UKRI used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 30 September 2026 and runs from 30 September to 30 December 2026. Its value is £38,779 excluding VAT (£46,534.80 including VAT). The award is active and covers the single lot for temporary scaffolding. The requirement was assessed against compliance with engineering design drawing 5979-07-01-02-001; no further evaluation criteria are reported.

This award shows demand from UK Research and Innovation for temporary scaffolding built and supplied in accordance with a specific engineering design. Suppliers competing for comparable requirements should be able to interpret and deliver against detailed engineering drawings, and demonstrate that their scaffold provision meets the stated design requirements. The selected supplier, PDL Access Ltd, is recorded as an SME, indicating that a smaller specialist supplier delivered this requirement. The limited competition route means businesses should be prepared to respond to a restricted competitive process rather than assume an open tender. The work is a discrete scaffold supply for a UKRI requirement, rather than a broader construction or scaffolding services contract.
