Summary of the contracting process

The Met Office, a public authority in central government, completed a direct procurement process for a "Pressure Controller" under the legal framework of UKPGA 2023/54. This procurement was described as a purchase of pressure controllers for pressure calibration work, with a corresponding contract signed on 27th November 2025. Located in Exeter, the Met Office opted for a below-threshold procurement method without competition. The overall contract, valued at £22,925, involves the delivery of goods to the UK and will remain active until 4th February 2026. The awarded supplier was FLUKE (UK) LIMITED, a small to medium-sized enterprise (SME) based in Norfolk, which specialises in gas pressure equipment.

This award creates a valuable opportunity for businesses, especially SMEs within the industrial equipment sector, to deliver specialised calibration and pressure control equipment. Although the direct procurement method implies a single supplier was contracted, similar opportunities may arise for businesses with innovations or efficiencies in pressure control technologies. Companies with strong credentials in supplying precision engineering equipment and an interest in expanding their client list to include esteemed government entities, such as the Met Office, would find similar tenders advantageous.
