## Summary

The procurement process titled "UKRI-5119 Research England's Multi-Year Data Audit Work" was facilitated by UK Research & Innovation (UKRI), a public body headquartered in Swindon, Wiltshire, United Kingdom. The contract focuses on the provision of accounting, auditing, and fiscal services and was awarded under the Crown Commercial Services RM6310 Framework, specifically under Lot 2. This procurement has reached the award stage, and the contract was signed with KPMG LLP on 21st November 2025, valued at £1,029,000. The contract will span 24 months, with the option to extend for two additional twelve-month periods. The procurement was conducted using a limited method without prior publication of a call for competition, primarily because it was sourced via an existing framework agreement.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses focused on auditing and assurance services to become key suppliers within the UK public sector. Although the contract has already been awarded to KPMG LLP, businesses of a similar size and scope may find opportunities in future tender exercises conducted by UKRI or through other Crown Commercial Services frameworks. Large enterprises, particularly those experienced in auditing and financial compliance, are well-suited to compete in such frameworks. Engaging with these frameworks can enhance business growth by securing consistent work and leveraging government partnerships.
