## Summary

The University of East Anglia, based in Norwich, has completed a direct procurement process without competition for project management services related to UKRI Proof of Concept grant activities. The process aimed to support the progression of a spin-out from assessment to investment readiness by providing crucial services like market validation, business planning, and creation of investor-focused materials. The award was made for a contract valued at £36,000, effective from 24th February 2026 to 31st May 2026. The procurement, classified under project management consultancy services, took place in the UKH15 region, indicating a service-oriented focus within the public authority's operational domain.
