## Summary

The public procurement process led by Offshore Renewable Energy Catapult, based in Glasgow, United Kingdom, pertains to the project titled "OSW Development Engagement in Chile." This initiative falls within the services industry category and focuses on research services in the context of offshore wind (OSW) development. Located primarily in Chile, the project involved direct procurement methods, classified as below threshold and without competition. The award was completed on 28th October 2025, and the contract is set to begin on 31st October 2025, running until 31st March 2026. This procurement process was undertaken under the legal framework of UKPGA 2023/54.

The engagement activities are centred around sharing expertise between UK and Chilean entities to support OSW advancement.

Businesses specialising in research services, policy recommendations, and techno-economic assessments, particularly those with experience in energy markets and HVDC bootstraps, would find similar procurement efforts ripe for engagement, offering a notable platform for expanding influence and fostering international partnerships in the renewable energy sector.
