## Summary

The UK Space Agency, headquartered in Didcot, United Kingdom, has completed a procurement process titled "Novaspace Research Reports and Data," under the industry category of services. This contract, awarded on 17th March 2026, involves the provision of off-the-shelf space sector research reports and proprietary datasets to assist in internal analysis and evidence-based advice. The procurement process was a direct award given to Novaspace SAS due to the proprietary nature of the products, with no reasonable alternative source available. The contract period spans from 17th March to 31st March 2026, with key deliveries expected in both the UK and France.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses within the data collection and supply services industry, particularly those that specialise in market intelligence and proprietary datasets, to understand the types of offerings the UK Space Agency prioritises. Although this specific contract was below threshold and awarded without competition, it signals a growing demand for specialised data services in the space sector, suggesting potential growth for businesses that can provide unique and high-value data offerings. Large companies with capabilities in data capture, collation, and delivery may find similar future opportunities to collaborate with government agencies like the UK Space Agency.

## Notice

Provision of off-the-shelf space sector research reports and proprietary datasets, comprising market intelligence on global government space programmes, satellites to be built and launched, the global space economy, and a space sector ecosystem database. The outputs support internal analysis, briefing, and evidence-based advice within the UK Space Agency, including continuity of established time-series data and previously used evidence bases. The contract was directly awarded to Novaspace SAS on the basis that the required reports and datasets are proprietary, standard products produced and owned by a single supplier, with no reasonable alternative source available for the same content.
