The procurement process conducted by UK Research and Innovation, titled "GSS25174 - Irradiation of ATLAS," falls under the central government public authority category. It is located in Swindon, United Kingdom, within the UKK14 region. The procurement stage is complete, with the award notice dated 7th March 2025. The process was conducted without competition under the direct procurement method due to the absence of alternative suppliers capable of providing the specific technical requirements. The contract duration starts on 7th March 2025 and ends on 30th May 2025, with a gross value of £16,863.6 GBP.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in technical irradiation services or high-precision equipment to collaborate with a prominent public authority.
