The location for delivery is in the region UKF3. The contract, valued at £5,000,000, was directly awarded without prior publication of a call for competition, permissible under the EEM framework - EEM0072 Lot 1. The procurement stage is complete, with the contract signed on 26 May 2026, and awarded to the supplier Huws Gray Ltd.
