## Summary

The UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) has awarded the Outside Manufacturing Dynamic Purchasing System (OM DPS) tender to multiple suppliers for mechanical engineering services. The procurement process was completed on 4th July 2023. The tender comprised 11 lots, each focusing on different manufacturing categories like machining, fabrication, and additive manufacture. The tender was conducted using a selective procurement method with a restricted procedure. Key deadlines for participation were specified for each lot.

This procurement opportunity provides a chance for businesses in the mechanical engineering sector to grow their operations. Companies offering precision manufacturing and sub-assembly services would be well-suited to compete in this tender. With the potential for extension beyond the initial three-year duration, successful bidders stand to benefit from long-term partnerships with UKRI. The location for delivery is within the United Kingdom, offering local businesses the opportunity to engage in lucrative contracts and establish strong relationships with a reputable buying organisation.
