## Summary

The Serious Fraud Office (SFO) based in London, United Kingdom, has completed a direct procurement process for an immersive educational exercise under the title "Stage 1 Design - Immersive educational exercise." This award process, initiated on 18th December 2025, falls under the goods category, specifically focused on educational games. UCL Consultants Limited, a large-scale consultancy, was directly awarded the contract, which was conducted without competition under a 'below threshold' procurement method. The contract, valued at £25,000 excluding VAT, was aimed at delivering a scoping phase for an educational game designed for the SFO, with this project's contract running from 18th December 2025 to 28th February 2026.

This procurement presents considerable opportunities for businesses particularly involved in the production and development of educational tools and games, as it underscores the demand for innovative educational resources within government sectors. While the project was awarded directly to UCL Consultants Limited, large consultancies or those developing educational technologies might see potential for future collaborations or similar projects by emphasizing their capabilities in immersive and tactile educational solutions. The project’s requirements for technical sophistication suggest opportunities are primarily geared towards larger and well-established players in the educational technology sector.
