## Summary

NPL Management Limited, the organisation responsible for the National Physical Laboratory in Teddington, procured independent chair services for its pension trustee board. The requirement is a specialist pension service, focused on providing an independent chair to support the board’s governance and decision-making. The work is associated with pension services and covers activity for the buyer in the United Kingdom. It is a focused professional-services requirement rather than a general pensions administration contract: the central role is to chair and support the trustee board independently. The procurement was structured as a single lot, covering the complete requirement for the pension trustee board.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a below-threshold procedure, with the detailed method recorded as unknown. ROSS TRUSTEES SERVICES LIMITED was selected as the supplier. The award is active and the contract was signed on 17 August 2026. The contract period runs from 17 August 2026 to 31 October 2027, while the service requirement is described as covering 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2027. The awarded contract value is £5,700,000 excluding VAT, or £6,840,000 including VAT. The procurement was evaluated as a single completed lot for pension trustee board chair services.

This procurement demonstrates demand from NPL Management Limited for an independent chair with the credibility to lead and support a pension trustee board. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement would need strong knowledge of occupational pension governance, trustee-board procedures, fiduciary responsibilities and the regulatory environment, together with the independence and judgement expected of a board chair. Relevant experience should include chairing trustee meetings, managing competing stakeholder interests, guiding effective decisions and maintaining clear governance oversight. The awarded supplier is an SME, indicating that this requirement can suit a focused specialist pension consultancy or trustee-services firm rather than only a large professional-services organisation. A credible competitor would need demonstrable senior experience in comparable pension trustee roles.
