Quick decision context for procurement relevance and maturity.
Coventry City Council procured commercial drone services from Skyfarer Ltd for £30,000 to support the Urban Ascent project, which develops frameworks for integrating drones and eVTOL aircraft into urban environments for applications like medical logistics, emergency response, and infrastructure inspection. Skyfarer Ltd acts as the operational and regulatory lead, coordinating procedures, safety frameworks, and airspace integration as part of this Innovate UK and Department for Transport-funded initiative to position Coventry as a drone-ready city. The contract aligns with broader efforts building on prior drone initiatives to enhance urban air mobility, reduce congestion, and lower emissions without conducting live trials.
