UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NPL Management Limited, the organisation operating the National Physical Laboratory in Teddington, bought a phase comparator system and frequency multiplier modules. The requirement covers specialist equipment and associated components for research, testing and measurement activities, including delivery of the equipment and related accessories. This is a goods procurement involving laboratory, optical and precision equipment. The awarded items are to be delivered in the United Kingdom. The requirement is relevant to manufacturers, specialist distributors and technical equipment suppliers able to provide phase comparison and frequency multiplication equipment, together with compatible accessories and delivery arrangements. It may also suit businesses supporting metrology, laboratory testing, precision measurement or related research environments.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a below-threshold procedure; the published method detail is recorded as unknown. One lot was awarded to TimeTech, an SME based in Stuttgart, Germany. The contract was signed on 29 June 2026, with a contract period from 29 June 2026 to 17 September 2026. The awarded contract value is EUR 47,850 gross. NPL Management Limited is the buyer. The award covers the phase comparator system and frequency multiplier modules, classified as laboratory, optical and precision equipment. The procurement was evaluated through the buyer’s stated tender process, and the award is active. The contract is below the applicable threshold.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement at NPL Management Limited for specialist frequency and precision-measurement equipment supporting research, testing and measurement. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable capability in supplying phase comparator systems, frequency multiplier modules and compatible accessories, with reliable delivery to the United Kingdom. Relevant suppliers are likely to be specialist manufacturers, authorised distributors or technical integrators serving national laboratories, metrology organisations and advanced testing environments. Businesses should be able to understand equipment specifications, match components to an existing measurement set-up and support the practical delivery of a short, focused equipment requirement. The successful supplier’s SME status also indicates that the scale and specialist nature of the requirement can suit a focused technical business rather than only a large prime contractor.
