UK Firms Pitch for CERN’s £110m in Supply Contracts

During 29 and 30 September The Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) gave nearly 70 UK businesses the opportunity to bid for business with CERN, the European particle physics laboratory that offered contracts worth £110 million last year alone.

Senior Procurement officials from CERN, which STFC funds for the UK, came to the UK looking to fill contracts in areas such as IT, mechanical engineering and electronics. The first of the two events was held at STFC’s
Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) in Oxfordshire on 29 September; the second at STFC’s Daresbury Laboratory in Cheshire on 30 September.

UK Trade & Investment (UKTI), the government organisation that helps UK-based companies succeed in the global economy supported the event. Chief Executive Sir Andrew Cahn, said: “Working with CERN is not only a feather in the cap for a British company but also an excellent business opportunity. Firms which meet the highest scientific standards required by this facility win not only business but also a world-class endorsement of their innovation and quality.”
