## Summary

The Department for Business & Trade procured security export statistics for 2025, covering security and cyber exports. The requirement is a research service supplying statistical information to support the department’s work in this area. The buyer is a central government department based in London. Delivery is stated as covering the United Kingdom. The procurement was structured as a single requirement rather than multiple separately described work packages. It would suit organisations providing specialist research, data collection, statistical analysis or market intelligence relating to security exports, cyber exports or both. The named supplier is Westlands Advisory, an SME advisory firm, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only by a large supplier.

This procurement has been completed and awarded following a direct procedure below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 20 August 2026 and runs from 20 August 2026 to 28 February 2027. Westlands Advisory received the award for the single lot. The contract value is £50,500 excluding VAT and £60,600 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The requirement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender, so there is no published comparison of competing bids or scored evaluation criteria. The procurement concerns research services, classified under CPV 73110000, and relates specifically to security export statistics for 2025.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award is a clear indication that the Department for Business & Trade buys focused evidence and analysis on security and cyber exports. A credible future competitor would need to produce reliable export statistics and explain the methods, sources and analysis behind them in a form suitable for government use. Relevant strengths would include specialist knowledge of security or cyber markets, robust quantitative research, data validation and the ability to turn findings into clear statistical outputs. The successful supplier is an SME advisory firm, showing that a smaller specialist organisation can be considered credible for this type of requirement. Experience delivering research for central government would also strengthen a future proposition.
