## Summary

UK Research & Innovation (UKRI), a central government public authority, concluded a procurement process titled "UKRI-5844 STFC R92 Corridors Ceiling Repairs," focusing on the repair and modification of ceilings within the R92 corridors. The procurement involved replacing the existing clip-in tile system with a new lay-in grid system to address health and safety concerns. Based in Swindon, Wiltshire, UKRI operates within the works industry category. The tender, identified as UKRI-5844, used a below-threshold limited competition procurement method and reached the award stage, with the contract signed on 25th February 2026. The implementation period spans from 16th March 2026 to 11th May 2026, covering delivery addresses in the South East region, specifically location UKJ14.

This tender, valued at £86,559.85 excluding VAT, presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in the installation of suspended ceilings. Airport Facilities (Maintenance) Ltd successfully secured the award, demonstrating potential growth for businesses proficient in renovation and maintenance work.
