## Summary

The contracting process initiated by UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) involved the supply of gases for the period 2026-2027 under the LUPC Framework LAB4060 SU. The procurement specifically catered to the British Geological Survey located in Nottingham, UK. Categorised under goods procurement with CPV classification 24100000 for gases, the tender process reached the award stage on 5th March 2026, with the contract being signed on 26th February 2026. The procurement method was limited, bypassing the prior publication of a competition call, and was governed by both UK law and GPA, indicating its significance under international agreements.

This tender represents an opportunity for businesses adept in the delivery and rental of gases to expand their services to public sector entities, particularly in the research field. BOC Ltd, known for its expertise and large scale operations, was successfully awarded the contract valued at £81,500. This highlights the potential for well-established suppliers with a robust capacity to fulfil specialised and consistent supply needs, benefiting from frameworks like LUPC. Companies aiming to grow in the supply chain for research-based institutions could explore similar frameworks and limited procurement methods to gain access to strategic contracts within the public sector.
