Summary of the contracting process

The recent public procurement process was managed by the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs in the UK. The contract titled "Hydrometry Measurement Instrumentation - Lot 2.1-2.2" was focused within the services category, particularly for surface water pollution monitoring or control services. Located in the UK, the award stage was completed with the contract signed on 16 May 2025. The procurement method followed an open procedure, under which Druck Ltd was awarded for submersible pressure sensors, divided into lots for analogue and digital output sensors. This was a significant procurement, as decisions were based primarily on a mix of technical quality (70%) and price (30%).

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in hydrometry and environmental instrumentation. Companies with expertise in sensor technologies, specifically those offering solutions for analogue and digital outputs, are well-suited to compete in similar future opportunities. Businesses able to demonstrate superior technical capabilities and competitive pricing strategies stand a chance to benefit, especially as the demand for advanced water pollution and environmental monitoring solutions increases. This contract serves as a gateway for engaging in long-term partnerships with government bodies, given that DEFRA's procurement requires continuous innovation and sustainability commitments.
