This falls under the services category, specifically relating to methane monitoring. The procurement was managed by UK Shared Business Services Ltd and is located in Swindon, United Kingdom. The process followed a direct, non-competitive method due to the absence of suitable alternatives, making Fieldhouse Engineering Ltd the sole supplier capable of fulfilling the contract requirements. The pertinent contract stage is complete with the signing date recorded as 15th July 2025, with the project commencing on 16th July 2025 and expected to conclude by 31st October 2025.

This tender could lead to business growth opportunities, especially for organisations involved in environmental and gas monitoring services, by securing similar contracts through partnerships or as subcontractors.
