## Summary

UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) conducted the procurement process titled "UKRI-5917 ANSYS TECS Support," operating within the software and information systems industry category. The procurement, located in Swindon, Wiltshire, United Kingdom, was handled as a direct award, given the technical necessity and cost implications of choosing an alternative supplier. Initially started in the planning stage on 9th March 2026, the contract was awarded to Ansys UK Ltd. and set to commence on 1st April 2026, with an implementation period planned until 31st March 2027. The contract has since been terminated as of 22nd June 2026, with the procurement originally valued at £147,672 gross, with £123,060 net.

This procurement process showcases an opportunity for large businesses experienced in providing specialised software support to engage with central government authorities like UKRI. Ansys UK's contract termination underscores the importance of stability and continuity in service provision that companies with technical prowess and resource availability can offer. Businesses within the software and information systems sector, particularly those capable of handling complex technical requirements and budget considerations, may find potential opportunities for growth and collaboration with UKRI and similar central government organisations.
