## Summary

UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) bought the manufacture and supply of unpopulated printed circuit boards (PCBs). The requirement is for physical circuit boards, rather than a stated design, installation or wider electronics service. UKRI is the buying organisation. The award identifies delivery in the United Kingdom, but does not name a specific delivery town or site. This is a single-lot purchase, covering one PCB supply requirement. The process title identifies it as UKRI-6392; the description adds reference DL559722E. The published item classification describes the boards as unpopulated, which means the procurement concerns boards supplied without electronic components fitted. The information does not describe board specifications, quantities or intended end use, so the scope that can be established is limited to their manufacture and supply.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. UKRI used a below-threshold limited competition. One supplier was selected: Garner Osborne Circuits Limited. The contract was signed on 13 October 2026, with a period running from 13 October to 20 November 2026. Its value is £11,166.72 excluding VAT, or £13,400.06 including VAT. There was one lot, and the award covers the PCB supply in that lot. The award is recorded as active. No evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements are set out in the available procurement details, so the basis on which bids were compared cannot be described. The stated procedure establishes that competition was limited rather than open, but gives no further detail on how suppliers were selected or assessed.

For suppliers considering similar UKRI requirements, this award demonstrates demand for manufactured, unpopulated printed circuit boards through a limited competition. A credible competitor would need to show it can manufacture and supply bare PCBs to the buyer’s technical requirements, manage production and quality reliably, and deliver to the required UK destination. The successful supplier, Garner Osborne Circuits Limited, is recorded as a large business, indicating that a supplier of established scale fulfilled this purchase; the data does not state that large-company status was a qualification. The procurement does not identify board design, materials, tolerances, testing, certifications, quantities or specialist accreditations, so no specific technical standard can be inferred. Suppliers should be ready to demonstrate relevant PCB production capability and dependable fulfilment, while recognising that this was a limited competition rather than an open procedure.
