Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the purchase of Flood Resilience Equipment, specifically telemetry equipment, coordinated by the Defra Network eTendering Portal based in London, UK. The procurement method employed is a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, aimed at ensuring timely acquisition of equipment essential for maintaining flood resilience. The contract, valued at £187,574.40, was signed on 20th August 2021, and this initiative falls within the broader category of goods procurement, tailored to meet specific environmental protection needs.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in advanced telecommunications equipment, particularly those capable of providing WITS DNP3 enabled devices that work over 4G communications. Companies with expertise in high-specification outstations for telemetry networks, as well as those interested in environmental and disaster resilience sectors, would be well-suited to compete. Given the current active status of the awarded contract to OVARRO TS LTD, potential suppliers should be prepared to engage in upcoming re-tendering processes to capitalise on future opportunities.
