Notice Information

Notice Title

RFQ - NMS-NPL Process Evaluation

Notice Description

The National Physical Laboratory (NPL) is the UK's National Measurement Institute and is a world-leading centre of excellence in developing and applying the most accurate measurement standards, science, and technology available. The National Measurement System (NMS) provides the UK with an infrastructure of laboratories that deliver world-class measurement science and technology and provide traceable and accurate standards of measurement. A dedicated process evaluation for NPL-NMS will not only serve as a key element of the ongoing evaluation of the NMS, but also identify potential lessons learnt and recommendations to support the continuous improvement of the programme's delivery. In this sense, the process evaluation for the NPL-NMS will serve to provide feedback at strategic level, which is a core component of the ROAMEF cycle by, for example, utilising established NMS stakeholder mechanisms (e.g., Programme Expert Groups [PEGs]).
