Major Five Year Contract Win to support NUAR

1Spatial awarded prime contractor role to support next phase of major national project

1Spatial, (AIM: SPA), a global leader in Location Master Data Management (LMDM) software and solutions, is pleased to announce that, following a competitive tender process, it has been awarded a contract by Ordnance Survey Ltd to act as prime contractor, an upgrade on the Company's prior role, to deliver the National Underground Asset Register (NUAR) Data Transformation and Ingestion (DT&I) Service. 

The delivery of the NUAR DT&I service, in partnership with Ordnance Survey Ltd, has a contract value to 1Spatial of £4.2m incorporating licence revenue of £1.5m. This covers an initial two-year term with the option to extend for a further three years.

The NUAR Programme is a Government Digital Service (GDS) initiative - operated by Ordnance Survey - to build a single digital map of underground pipes and cables, revolutionising how sectors install, maintain, operate and repair buried infrastructure in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. NUAR involves transforming and ingesting data from over 600 public and private sector asset owners, including utility companies and local authorities, delivered in varied formats, scale and quality. This data is processed through the 1Spatial Data Platform, which is designed to scale, enabling hundreds of asset owners to seamlessly upload and transform their data with efficiency.

Currently, work on buried infrastructure requires contacting multiple organisations and waiting over on average six days for information. NUAR will make this data instantly available, 24/7. Once operational, NUAR is expected to deliver over £400 million per year in economic growth through increased efficiency, reduced asset strikes and fewer public disruptions, while supporting the development of new roads, railways and housing.

This contract win builds on 1Spatial's strong delivery in the development phase, as part of the team that launched the Minimum Viable Product (MVP). 1Spatial's collaborative team approach has been instrumental in establishing NUAR.

The successful re-compete as prime contractor reinforces 1Spatial's technology leadership, powering NUAR's evolution to improve efficiency, enhance safety, and minimise disruption nationwide. NUAR is a key step in the digital transformation of critical national infrastructure and is recognised as an exemplar for embedding security-first principles in a programme of national significance.

Claire Milverton, CEO of 1Spatial, commented: "We are delighted to continue our collaboration with Ordnance Survey Ltd on this nationally significant project, validating the strength of our product offering. The renewal and upgrade of our role highlight our position as a trusted partner in delivering innovative geospatial solutions that create long-term value for government, industry and the public.

"NUAR will become one of the most comprehensive underground asset datasets globally and a high-profile example of data integration at scale, with our platform transforming fragmented records into a consistent, validated dataset. The complexity of harmonising thousands of datasets represents a strong barrier to entry to other vendors and with similar initiatives emerging internationally, we are strongly positioned to leverage the strength of our technology platform worldwide.

"Looking ahead, initiatives like NUAR, alongside platforms such as our 1Streetworks solution which already leverages authoritative geospatial data, have the potential to transform industries."

Nick Lindsay, NUAR Business Lead at Ordnance Survey, added: "NUAR is a vital step toward improving safety, efficiency and coordination across buried infrastructure. We're pleased to continue our close collaboration with 1Spatial, whose technology plays a central role in facilitating automated data governance, while delivering increased efficiencies on this critical project."
