This procurement falls under the services category, specifically targeting research and development consultancy services for the aerospace and space supply chain. The project is set in the South West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement is currently in the award stage, having been actively awarded on 18 December 2020, with a contract period that runs until 30 September 2022. The method employed for this tender was an open procedure, suitable for SMEs and VCSEs. This opportunity allows businesses, particularly those with expertise in legal services and intellectual property rights, to support aerospace companies in overcoming challenges related to R&D collaborations. Companies capable of offering legal consultancy, IP protection, and technology commercialisation services are well-poised to engage in this tender, thereby facilitating their growth within the aerospace sector. With Cornwall Development Company Ltd as the buying authority, there is potential for suppliers to establish valuable partnerships in this innovative field. ## Notice AeroSpace Cornwall supports businesses to develop products, services and technologies which can be sold into the aerospace and space supply chain(s). Several businesses have identified challenges developing and selling products and services into these markets without the appropriate legal knowledge to ensure collaboration contracts are sound and any future commercial considerations are prepared for effectively. Many of the business approaching AeroSpace Cornwall have not considered how they will protect and commercialise the intellectual property (IP) generated through R&D project activity. This is especially important in collaborative R&D projects where arising IP is shared between the parties involved and SME's can often be at a disadvantage compared to larger entities with in-house legal advisors. Support is required for a number of businesses with IP, R&D collaboration agreements and contracts before, during and after R&D activity has taken place. There is a requirement for an appropriately qualified legal expert to transfer knowledge of the legal aspects of IP associated with R&D activity to support businesses in overcoming these challenges. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8368c0aa-1d0a-428a-a976-0a76b50492f9 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 6 Mar 2022 | | Submission deadline | 4 Dec 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 18 Dec 2020 | | Contract period | 18 Dec 2020 - 30 Sep 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £65,250 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CORNWALL DEVELOPMENT COMPANY LTD | | Locality | REDRUTH | | Post town | Truro | | Postcode | TR15 3QG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK3 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | ITL 3 | TLK30 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | Local authority | Cornwall | | Electoral ward | Pool & Tehidy | | Westminster constituency | Camborne and Redruth | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | FOOT ANSTEY | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 6 Mar 2022 at 15:36 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8368c0aa-1d0a-428a-a976-0a76b50492f9 - 6 Mar 2022 at 15:04 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/33c8d865-d2d9-4c9e-868f-20ac1e77e760 - 6 Mar 2022 at 15:03 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/33c8d865-d2d9-4c9e-868f-20ac1e77e760 - 30 Nov 2020 at 11:56 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/33c8d865-d2d9-4c9e-868f-20ac1e77e760 - 16 Nov 2020 at 16:59 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/33c8d865-d2d9-4c9e-868f-20ac1e77e760 - 16 Nov 2020 at 16:58 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/33c8d865-d2d9-4c9e-868f-20ac1e77e760 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8368c0aa-1d0a-428a-a976-0a76b50492f9 6th March 2022 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/33c8d865-d2d9-4c9e-868f-20ac1e77e760 6th March 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/e908f55e-477a-4d92-830e-7a75281207e2 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/86296d2d-80ce-47f7-93cf-f791947dabfc - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/51233136-41b4-4f2f-b4d4-2db0d6b336ff - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/788eb721-5b6d-4e91-9126-183fa88be490 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/91fe58da-01ee-4b95-8ba6-d02f0597f299 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/0ad2efb7-8f95-4466-a22d-4d5fab2cdec6 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/f9428fc4-68af-457e-a048-0b7d36dc4c19 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
