## Summary

UK Research & Innovation (UKRI), through its Science and Technology Facilities Council, commissioned mechanical, electrical and public health professional services to support the design of a new Estates and Logistics Building at Daresbury Laboratory. The requirement is for design support across these building-services disciplines, in the context of a new laboratory estate and logistics facility. The work is associated with Daresbury Laboratory; the procurement identifies the United Kingdom as the delivery country. The service category is engineering and construction design support (CPV 71541000, construction project management services).

The procurement is complete and awarded to Services Design Solution Ltd, a small and medium-sized enterprise. UKRI used a selective process: a competitive further competition under its UKRI-4453 framework agreement. The award was made on 24 September 2026. The awarded value is £225,750 excluding VAT (£270,900 including VAT). The contract period runs from 28 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. The procurement was arranged as one lot. The award information identifies the successful supplier and service category; no award-scoring breakdown is set out here.

For future requirements of this kind at Daresbury Laboratory, a credible competitor would need to provide professional design support spanning mechanical, electrical and public health building services, and be able to contribute to the design of a substantial new estates and logistics facility. The award demonstrates that UKRI procured this work through a competitive further competition under its UKRI-4453 framework, so relevant framework access is commercially important for competing through the same route. Services Design Solution Ltd, identified as an SME, won the work, showing that the requirement was fulfilled by a smaller supplier rather than being limited to a large contractor. The central capability evidenced by this procurement is coordinated building-services design input for a laboratory estate project.
