## Summary

UK Research and Innovation bought a custom tactical fuel-containment berm, groundsheets and delivery. The requirement was handled by UK Shared Business Services Ltd on UKRI’s behalf. The awarded item is classified as installation services for metal containers, indicating a requirement involving the installation of the containment equipment as well as the supplied groundsheets and delivery. Delivery was in the United Kingdom; no more specific destination is identified. This is a specialised, made-to-order requirement rather than a general purchase of standard fuel-storage equipment. The procurement description says the chosen supplier was the only one able to provide the custom item. Businesses working in fuel containment, engineered or fabricated equipment, and associated installation and delivery are the most directly relevant.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to BUTYL PRODUCTS LIMITED. UKRI used a below-threshold limited competition, and the award description says the supplier was selected as the only one able to deliver the custom requirement. The contract was signed on 19 August 2026 and ran from 20 August to 24 September 2026. Its value was £32,952 excluding VAT, or £39,542 including VAT. There was one lot, covering the complete requirement; a separate award value is not published. The award is recorded as active and the contract as active. The available evaluation explanation is the supplier’s ability to provide the specified custom item; no further scoring criteria are set out.

For suppliers considering similar UKRI requirements, the award points to a need for specialist custom fuel-containment equipment, with groundsheets and delivery forming part of the package. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate that it can design or supply a suitable bespoke berm and meet the associated installation requirement for metal containers, rather than offer only off-the-shelf goods. The stated reason for choosing the incumbent was that it was the only supplier able to do the custom work, so evidence of relevant technical capability and the capacity to fulfil a tailored specification would be central to competing effectively. The single-lot approach also indicates that the buyer sought a supplier able to handle the joined-up requirement, including delivery, rather than a set of separately awarded elements.
