## Summary

Centre for Process Innovation Limited is procuring business development support in the USA for its HealthTech and advanced materials work. The requirement covers market engagement and pipeline growth across two geographic areas: the East Coast, with a focus on New England, and the West Coast. The supplier will make targeted introductions, arrange and facilitate meetings, support CPI staff visits, and build networks and business opportunities with relevant regional stakeholders. This is a services opportunity combining business development consultancy with technical support. It is divided into East Coast and West Coast lots, so suppliers with strong networks in one or both US regions may be relevant.

The procurement reached tender: the buyer invited offers through a below-threshold open competition, with electronic submission allowed. Bids were due by 12:00 on 14 September 2026. The estimated total value is £80,000 excluding VAT, or £96,000 including VAT. Both lots have a contract period from 15 September 2026 to 29 March 2030, with four possible 12-month extensions at the authority’s discretion, allowing the arrangement to run until 29 March 2034. Each lot is evaluated on 70% quality and 30% price. The requirement forms part of a below-threshold open framework, with competition reopened with or without further competition as set out in the specification and ITT documents.

This opportunity suits business development consultancies, market-entry specialists and technical support providers with established US networks, particularly in New England, the wider East Coast or the West Coast. Strong candidates will be able to identify relevant HealthTech and advanced materials stakeholders, secure targeted introductions, facilitate productive meetings and help convert relationships into commercial opportunities. The work also requires the capacity to support CPI staff visits and to work closely with CPI personnel on market engagement and pipeline development. Suppliers with experience of innovation-led sectors, technology commercialisation, industry partnerships or cross-border business development are well placed. Both lots are identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and businesses may be relevant for one region or both.
