## Summary

The procurement process led by UK Research and Innovation, titled "CSP26302 - ESD work benches," was concluded on 10 March 2026. This project pertains to the supply of ESD work benches within the goods category, specifically work and laboratory benching, under a direct procurement method. The contract awarded falls below the specified threshold and was executed without competition due to technical reasons, involving only one supplier, Elcom Lt. The contract, valued at £12,150 gross, is slated for the delivery of items within the UK, running from 5 March 2026 until 31 March 2026. The main location for the contracting process handled by the procuring entity, UK Shared Business Services Ltd, and the buyer, UK Research and Innovation, is Polaris House, Swindon, UK.

This tender provides Elcom Lt, a small to medium-sized enterprise, with a robust opportunity to strengthen its market position by meeting specialised technical demands. The procurement is especially advantageous for businesses that possess niche capabilities in manufacturing or supplying technical laboratory equipment, such as those that specialise in bespoke or hard-to-source items. Such contracts can foster business growth by allowing enterprises to showcase their expertise and potentially secure recurring assignments from central government bodies like UK Research and Innovation, thereby enhancing their reputation and expanding their market reach.
