The procurement process conducted by UK Research & Innovation (UKRI), a central government public authority based in Swindon, Wiltshire, focused on acquiring replacement Grundfos pumps. This tender, under the title "UKRI-5303 Grundfos Pumps," falls under the goods category and was completed using a limited procurement method.

The contract, valued at £44,413.05, commenced on 9th October 2025 and is set to conclude on 6th March 2026. The procurement was compliant with Public Law 2023/54.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses specialising in the supply of centrifugal pumps. The procurement process favoured limited competition, which can be advantageous for businesses that develop niche capabilities in pump repairs or manufacturing.
