Where appropriate, RED utilises a collaborative trading model supporting:

  • Staff;
  • Associates;
  • SMEs and Micro SMEs;
  • Academia.

To enable us to do this we maintain close relationships with a large number of associates and organisations to provide specialist support. RED often partners with large primes, other SMEs and Universities to develop consortia to meet specific customer needs and we have close relationships with some strategic partners.

RED Scientific has relationships with departments and schools from a number of UK Universities, covering many areas of expertise. These partnerships enable us to offer access to some of the leading experts in their fields.

We are always interested to hear from new associates and organisations seeking opportunities and effective routes to market for their skills and experience.

RED care about the world we operate in. Please see our Social Impact Initiatives and our Carbon Reduction Plan.
