The procurement is at the tender stage and was last updated on 18 February 2025. This project seeks to enhance the development and exploitation of knowledge assets (KAs) within the UK public sector. The initiative is based in Salford, UK, and employs a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to source sector-specific expertise to support various projects, including technology transfer and commercialisation efforts. A key amendment to the contract allows for a 12-month extension if necessary. This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses with expertise in technology transfer and intellectual property management to engage with the public sector, providing hands-on support and guidance. Companies experienced in commercialising innovation, performing due diligence, assessing market potential, and protecting intellectual property will find this procurement especially beneficial. Moreover, businesses specialising in developing organisational capabilities for managing and exploiting knowledge assets are well-suited for this tender, potentially driving their own growth while contributing to the UK's economic and societal benefits. ## Notice The UK's public sector is a thriving source of innovation. DSIT has established a new unit, the Government Office for Technology Transfer (GOTT), to support public sector organisations to unlock the potential of that innovation through the development and exploitation of knowledge assets (KAs). Within the public sector, KA's include intangible assets such as intellectual property, datasets, new ideas, processes, or methods, together with organisational knowhow and expertise. Exploitation routes include commercialisation or wider adoption within UK government or the wider public sector. The outcomes are similar - delivering benefit for the UK economy and society. GOTT is launching a new Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) containing multiple professional services categories from which we intend to draw down relevant sector-specific expertise in support of individual projects and developing wider capability focused on KAs. We are seeking experts with experience in Technology Transfer and Commercialisation to provide hands-on support and guidance to public sector organisations, GOTT's 'clients'. Many projects will involve the translation and commercialisation of KAs into opportunities which maximise economic, financial and/or societal benefits. Some projects may also focus on supporting GOTT's clients to develop their own internal capabilities to better manage and exploit their KAs in the future. GOTT's clients will hold KAs which have been identified to have potential for wider market adoption and commercialisation and wish to understand routes to exploit these assets. Dependent upon the needs of each client project, providers might be commissioned to help assess the market potential for client-owned assets or help to evaluate the route to market where potential has already been identified, in order to advance the commercial case for development and exploitation. There may also be targeted support focused on intellectual property identification, due diligence, and protection. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/005606-2025 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Dynamic | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 18 Feb 2025 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Not specified | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | GOVERNMENT OFFICE FOR TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER | | Locality | SALFORD | | Post town | Manchester | | Postcode | M3 5BS | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD3 Greater Manchester | | ITL 3 | TLD34 Greater Manchester South West | | Local authority | Salford | | Electoral ward | Blackfriars & Trinity | | Westminster constituency | Salford | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 18 Feb 2025 at 14:22 - TenderUpdate - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/005606-2025 ## Notice URLs - https://ted.europa.eu/udl?uri=TED:NOTICE:123456-2010:TEXT:EN:HTML - https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/government-office-for-technology-transfer ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
