Payment obligations depend on the applicable regime and contract. Consult the official documents.
Coverage: 8 active published awards; 8 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Published-to-award variance compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

Planning and rationale
Planning budgetNot published
No-engagement rationaleNot published
Procedure rationaleA crucial aspect of procuring licenses and software, besides compatibility with STFC current designs, is backwards compatibility with past projects and intellectual property. If UKRI were to lose this backwards compatibility, significant additional effort and risk would have to be introduced in future projects to re-implement the designs.
