DSIT NMS - NEL Flow Programme
Notice Description
This notice is to inform the market that a number of contract awards will be made in relation to the National Measurement System (NMS). The NMS is the system of laboratories and capabilities that underpin the UK's metrology. The NMS provides the UK with an infrastructure of laboratories that deliver world-class measurement science and technology and provide traceable and increasingly accurate standards of measurement. The National Physical Laboratory (NPL) and the National Engineering Laboratory (TUV-NEL) develop and maintain measurement standards that support high-precision manufacturing processes. This ensures that UK manufacturers can produce high-quality products that meet international standards. The NMS labs support the digital economy by developing measurement techniques for emerging technologies such as quantum computing, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things (IoT), helping the UK stay at the forefront of technological innovation. Metrology labs contribute to environmental sustainability by providing accurate measurements for monitoring air and water quality, greenhouse gas emissions, and energy efficiency. This supports the UK's efforts to transition to clean energy sources and mitigate climate change. The National Measurement Laboratory (NML) at LGC and other labs ensure the accuracy of measurements in healthcare, such as those used in medical diagnostics and pharmaceuticals. This helps improve public health outcomes and supports the development of new medical technologies. The NMS enhances national security by developing measurement standards for critical infrastructure, cybersecurity, and emergency response. This ensures that the UK can effectively respond to and recover from various threats. The extensive scientific and technical infrastructure, expertise, and resources necessary to provide these services mean that there is an absence of competition from other providers. These contracts are therefore awarded directly. The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator for the following reason: absence of competition for technical reasons.
Planning Information
Preliminary Market Engagement for National Measurement System Programmes 2026-2030 Background Information: The National Measurement System (NMS) is the UK’s infrastructure of laboratories and capabilities that deliver world-class measurement science and provide accurate, precise, and traceable measurements that underpin research, innovation, and trade. The NMS enables the UK to compete in global trade and manufacturing by ensuring consistency and recognition of measurement units and standards throughout the world. Internationally-leading knowledge and expertise is passed on to UK stakeholders by a coordinated programme of knowledge transfer. The Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) supports the NMS because of the substantial impact it has on every aspect of UK life and its economic success. DSIT does so by funding science programmes delivered by the UK’s National Metrology Institute, the National Physical Laboratory (NPL), and other nationally designated metrology institutes. The science programmes are focused across a range of sectors and technology areas, including: • Advanced manufacturing, including power electronics, metamaterials, semiconductors, and mass, dimensional, and temperature measurements. Current projects include: o Providing and maintaining the UK’s national primary standards for temperature, humidity, mass, force, and length. o Establishing metrology capabilities to test and evaluate new semiconductor materials. • Digital, including communications and time and electromagnetic measurements. Current projects include: o Research to maintain the UK’s world-class optical frequency metrology and influence the international redefinition of the SI second. o Maintaining and delivering SI-traceable realisations of electrical, magnetic, and optical units. o Developing data science capabilities and tools to improve end-users’ confidence in their use of metrology data and AI systems. • Life sciences and health, including radiation dosimetry, bioimaging, and engineering biology. Current projects include: o Maintaining and developing the UK’s primary standards for ionising radiation, and providing validation and measurement confidence for radiotherapy, nuclear medicine, and associated imaging provided by the NHS and other healthcare providers. o Research and development to establish measurement capabilities, SI-traceable phantom materials, uncertainty assessments, and guidance for quantitative imaging in PET, SPECT, MRI and ultrasound. • Energy and environment, including gas composition and fluxes, and metrology for clean technology. Current projects include: o Maintaining and developing the UK’s primary standards for gas composition and aerosol measurements. o Developing measurement procedures and reference materials for the measurement of environmental DNA (eDNA). • Quantum, including quantum sensing, computing, and timing and navigation. Current projects include: o Developing test and evaluation capabilities for security assurance of commercially available quantum communications products such as Quantum Key Distribution systems and Quantum Random Number Generator devices. o Providing metrology, testing, and benchmarking for UK industry in the development of the next generation of quantum sensors for magnetometry and imaging, including their applications in health care and critical infrastructure. • Chemical and biological metrology, including purity measurements, organic analysis, and isotope ratios. Current projects include: o Maintaining and delivering accredited, SI-traceable calibration and reference materials for purity determination. o Developing and validating measurement methods to quantify particle additives in regulated consumer products and accidental food and environmental pollutants. • Flow measurement, including gas flow and metrology for alternative fuels. Current projects include: o Providing and maintaining the UK’s primary standards for the flow of oil, water, gas, CO2, and Hydrogen. o Research to investigate and develop new primary standards for high-pressure, high-flow-rate gas flows. • Gears metrology. Current projects include: o Providing and maintaining the UK’s primary standards for the measurement and characterisation of gears. These programmes are currently provided via contracted services for DSIT by: • The National Physical Laboratory (NPL), the UK’s National Metrology Institute; • The National Measurement Laboratory at LGC (formerly the Laboratory of the Government Chemist), the UK’s designated institute for chemical and biological measurement; • TÜV SÜD National Engineering Laboratory, the UK’s designated institute for flow measurement; • The National Gear Metrology Laboratory, the UK’s designated institute for gear measurement. The purpose of this questionnaire is to better understand the market for fundamental metrology capabilities in the UK ahead of the current contracts expiring on 1st April 2026, and assess whether any of the DSIT NMS programmes could be delivered, in whole or in part, by alternative providers. Service Description: The aims of these programmes are to: 1) Ensure that industry, researchers, regulators, and other users in the UK can reliably, accurately, and precisely measure, test, calibrate, and validate their products, services, and processes, as necessary to support, for example, trade, scientific research, the development of innovative technologies, environmental monitoring and protection, and public health. 2) Directly support innovation by helping businesses to overcome measurement and analytical problems, and bringing more businesses, researchers, and other stakeholders to the technological frontier through consultancy and training services. The services involved in delivering these programmes may include, across all sector and technology areas set out above: • Developing and maintaining, to the highest accuracy, precision, and traceability, the UK’s fundamental measurement standards in a given area. The accuracy and uncertainty of these standards must be evidenced through, for example, the highest standards of accreditation. This will involve applied research and the development, validation and documentation of measurement protocols, instrumentation, reference materials, and reference data, and will involve collaboration with partners as appropriate. • Collaborating with standards bodies, regulators, and other stakeholders to develop and advise on technical standards, regulatory frameworks, and testing and calibration methodologies to support technological development. • Horizon-scanning and engagement with stakeholders (including industry, researchers, and the government) to identify, and develop the capabilities required to meet, new measurement needs. • Collaborating with national metrology institutes and designated institutes in other countries on joint research and development projects. • Knowledge transfer and support for industry, researchers, and other stakeholders through collaboration with businesses, publication of research, training, and consultancy services. This work will leverage the expertise developed through the development and maintenance of the fundamental measurement standards. Questions: Your Organisation 1. What is your organisation’s name? 2.
