## Summary

Satellite Applications Catapult Limited procured bid support services to provide additional assistance to its existing team for a limited period. The requirement covers business support associated with bids, including the business services, consulting and related professional activities classified under CPV 79000000. The work is for the Catapult’s operations in the United Kingdom, with the delivery location recorded in the UKJ1 area. The buyer is a public undertaking based at Harwell Science & Innovation Campus in Oxfordshire. The requirement was treated as a service rather than goods or construction, and was arranged as a single package of work.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a limited competition under a below-threshold agreement already in place with the supplier. The contract was signed on 23 July 2026 and awarded to Bid Solutions Limited. The contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. Its value is £47,700 excluding VAT, or £57,240 including VAT. The requirement was divided into one completed lot. The award is active and the contract is active. The recorded procurement route was limited competition, rather than an open procedure, and the published outcome identifies Bid Solutions Limited as the selected supplier.

This procurement indicates demand from Satellite Applications Catapult for specialist bid support that can supplement an established internal team for a defined period. Suppliers competing for a similar requirement would need practical capability in bid support and the business-services, consulting or related professional work needed to strengthen bids. They would also need sufficient capacity to provide additional support alongside the buyer’s existing staff, rather than simply deliver a standalone document. Bid Solutions Limited, recorded as a small or medium-sized enterprise, won through a limited competition under an existing below-threshold agreement. Comparable suppliers should therefore be able to demonstrate focused bid-support experience, reliable short-term resourcing and delivery for a UK public-sector undertaking.
