## Summary

The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) has awarded a contract for IP Landscaping Services to RWS Information Ltd. The tender description outlines the need for patent searching and IP landscaping services in the field of fusion energy. The contract is valued at £200,000 and will run from 15th February 2023 to 31st March 2025. UKAEA aims to understand patenting activities and infringement risks related to technology options.

This opportunity to provide IP landscaping services is suited for businesses offering market research, economic analysis, and consulting services. The procurement stage is at the award phase, indicating that the contract has been officially granted to the selected supplier. Interested businesses in the law, marketing, consulting, and business-related services sectors can benefit from participating in this single-provider framework opportunity to expand their market presence and offer specialised IP services to UKAEA.

## Notice

UKAEA seeks to appoint a single provider of patent searching and IP landscaping services ("the Supplier") in the field of fusion energy. We will establish a single supplier framework; the framework will run from January 2023 to 31st March 2024. The anticipated contract value of the term is PS180,000 excluding vat, however there is no commitment to spend up to this amount. Tasks will require IP Landscaping to understand the patenting activities and existing protection into which UKAEA technology prospects under consideration are entering. Where technology decisions are already made the UKAEA IP team can provide a view on infringement risk. But where different technology options are still being assessed, UKAEA requires help to understand these areas through a series of IP Landscapes. Tasks will require IP Analysis to understand the infringement risk to which technology options already undergoing feasibility studies expose UKAEA.
