Summary of the contracting process

The UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology is conducting a procurement for a “Low Power Fast Methane Analyser,” a specialised gas-analysis apparatus that is crucial for greenhouse gas monitoring. This procurement operates under a single tender action, classifying it as direct procurement due to its low-value contract amount of £75,794. The procurement process is currently complete, with the contract period having commenced on 2nd March 2020 and lasting until 7th April 2020. The project is based in Wallingford, England, and all relevant details were finalised as of 1st March 2020.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in environmental technology and instrumentation, particularly those with expertise in gas-analysis apparatus and methane monitoring systems. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to engage in this sector, given the niche nature of the equipment required and the low-power specifications that may align with innovative solutions within the industry. Companies that can demonstrate compatibility with existing installations and adherence to ICOS standards would be especially well-positioned to compete effectively in future tenders of a similar nature.
