## Summary

The procurement process involves UK Shared Business Services Ltd (UK SBS), on behalf of the UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC), for the maintenance of Air Conditioning Systems and Associated Services at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) located in Oxfordshire. The contract, valued at £180,400, is scheduled to commence on 19th October 2020 and will last for a period of two years, with an option for a one-year extension. This award was made following a negotiated procedure due to no tenders being received from an earlier open call, with the final submission deadline for that process being 16th September 2020.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in air conditioning maintenance and related services, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Companies proficient in routine and reactive maintenance, as well as those familiar with the specifications set out by UKRI, would be especially well-positioned to engage in similar contract opportunities in the future. The nature of the work allows for potential long-term partnerships with UKRI and associated bodies, thereby promoting sustainable business growth in this sector.
