## Summary

UK Research and Innovation bought a marine controller for stock, classified as electrical machinery, apparatus, equipment and consumables. The requirement concerns the supply of a marine control component rather than construction, installation or a broader services programme. The goods are intended for delivery in the United Kingdom. UK Shared Business Services Ltd managed the procurement on behalf of UK Research and Innovation as the shared service provider. The named requirement is ETO – Marine Controller for Stock, reference CSP26856. This is relevant to businesses that manufacture, distribute or supply marine control equipment and associated electrical apparatus for public-sector research or operational use.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a below-threshold direct award without competition because the buyer recorded an absence of competition for technical reasons and stated that only one supplier could provide the required goods. Kongsberg Maritime Netherlands BV was awarded the contract on 16 September 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract runs from 16 September 2026 to 16 December 2026. Its value is £10,955.91 including tax. The award is active and the contract is active. The process consisted of one completed lot, covering the marine controller supply. The outcome reflects a technical-suitability basis rather than a competitive price-and-quality evaluation.

This procurement indicates demand from UK Research and Innovation for a specific marine controller held as stock, supplied through a direct route where technical compatibility was decisive. A credible future supplier would need proven ability to provide the exact marine control equipment required, demonstrate that its product meets the buyer’s technical requirements, and explain any compatibility or supply-chain constraints clearly. Relevant businesses are specialist marine-equipment manufacturers, authorised distributors and electrical-equipment suppliers with dependable access to this type of controller. The awarded supplier is recorded as a large organisation, suggesting that a competing business should be able to provide reliable fulfilment and engage effectively with a central public-sector buyer and its shared procurement service.
