In this procurement process, Northern Gas Networks Limited (NGN) has contracted Sensia UK Ltd for the support and maintenance of Flow Rack systems across their network. The procurement falls under the services category, specifically involving the maintenance and repair of computer equipment (CPV code: 50312000). The project involves multiple locations across the UK including regions UKC, UKD1, and UKE. The procurement method utilised was a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, justified due to the technical expertise exclusive to Sensia UK Ltd.
