## Summary

UK Research & Innovation (UKRI), a central government public authority based in Swindon, Wiltshire, has completed a procurement process for the supply of an offshore fuel hose for refuelling operations in Antarctica. This tender, identified as UKRI-5076, falls under the goods category and was conducted using a 'below threshold - without competition' method, meaning it did not involve competitive bidding. The contract, valued at £79,895 (excluding VAT), was awarded to Angus Fire Ltd, a large-scale supplier based in High Bentham, United Kingdom. Important dates include the contract period from 29th July 2025 to 29th October 2025, with the final contract signing completed on 28th July 2025.

This procurement opens significant opportunities for businesses involved in the manufacturing or supply of specialised equipment, such as hoses, particularly those with capabilities to support remote operations such as in Antarctica. Given the non-competitive nature of the procurement method, businesses with the ability to form strong direct relationships with public authorities like UKRI can find opportunities for future collaborations. Companies looking to expand into specialised government contract work would benefit from this type of tender, particularly those with a track record in supplying essential goods directly aligned with government needs.
