The procurement followed an open procedure, highlighting transparency and competitiveness. The key stages in this process have included a tender period that concluded on 28th March 2025, subsequently leading to an award stage. The agreement has now been successfully completed, with a contract valued at GBP 345,395 signed on 5th September 2025. The location of delivery and execution of this procurement is within the UKM82 region, with specific administrative activities centred around the University’s Procurement Office in Glasgow.
