This initiative, led by Llywodraeth Cymru / Welsh Government, focuses on the scientific survey and monitoring of common Welsh fishery species. The project is categorised under services, specifically design and execution of research and development, as per CPV classification 73300000. Located in Cardiff, the Welsh Government, through its Corporate Procurement Services, has awarded the contract to Apem Ltd, based in Manchester. The total value of the award is £177,481.32.
