Summary of the contracting process

UK Research and Innovation commissioned design work for a refurbishment of its replication laboratory. The requirement is classified as refurbishment work, with the design focused on the lab refurbishment rather than a broader building programme. UK Shared Business Services Ltd managed the procurement on UKRI’s behalf. The delivery location is recorded only as the United Kingdom, so a specific site or town cannot be identified from the procurement details. This is a works-related requirement centred on refurbishment design; suppliers whose work covers planning and design for laboratory refurbishment are the closest fit.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a limited competition below the applicable threshold. LSG Anglia Ltd was selected as the supplier for the single lot. The contract was signed on 30 September 2026 and runs from 1 October 2026 to 28 February 2027. Its value is £22,000 excluding VAT (£26,400 including VAT). The stated requirement is replication laboratory refurbishment design. No evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements are recorded in the available procurement information, so the basis for selecting the supplier cannot be described beyond the limited competition route.

For suppliers considering similar future work for UK Research and Innovation, this award shows demand for design services tied specifically to laboratory refurbishment, rather than general refurbishment alone. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate relevant design capability for laboratory environments and an understanding of how refurbishment work is developed into a deliverable design. The award went to LSG Anglia Ltd, recorded as an SME, showing that a smaller supplier secured this requirement through a limited competition. The modest contract scale suggests a focused assignment rather than a large construction programme. Experience supporting research facilities or technically demanding laboratory spaces would help suppliers demonstrate fit, while the procurement itself does not establish mandatory accreditations or other formal qualification thresholds.
