Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for Wind Monitoring Support, led by Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru, a public authority under Welsh devolved regulations, has concluded with the award of contracts. The procurement was conducted using an open procedure, with Trydan Gwyrdd Cymru based in Merthyr Tydfil, United Kingdom. The tender, titled "Trydan Wind Monitoring Support Tender Contract Award," involved providing meteorological mast services and LiDAR services, divided into two lots. The contracts have been awarded to Dulas Ltd starting from 22nd October 2025 and ending on 21st October 2029. This procurement falls within the engineering-related scientific and technical services industry category, with services to be delivered across the UKL region.

This tender process has opened up opportunities for businesses specialising in wind monitoring technology and services, particularly those capable of providing comprehensive meteorological and LiDAR services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in scientific and technical service provision are well-positioned to benefit from such opportunities, especially given the framework agreement's structure that allows for call-off services as needed. The contracts provide a stable and lucrative business growth opportunity, particularly for suppliers with the capability to manage, maintain, and store specialised equipment over the contract duration.
