Summary of the contracting process

The Met Office, based in Exeter, England, has completed a procurement process for meteorological equipment with a contract value of £10,400. The procurement was conducted as a direct tender through a single tender action, which means it was below the threshold for competitive bidding. The tender period concluded on 12th May 2021, and the contract period spans from 13th May 2021 to 10th June 2021. The procurement falls under the goods category, specifically concerning meteorological instruments, as classified under CPV code 38120000.

This tender presents an opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) particularly engaged in the supply of meteorological instruments and related technologies.
