Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Environment Protection Agency has completed a procurement process for handheld dissolved oxygen measuring units, awarding the contract to SciQuip Ltd. The procurement falls under the category of "Environmental protection" and covers goods specifically related to measuring equipment. The contract, valued at £58,468.85, is part of a limited procurement method, which allows for a direct award without prior publication due to specific procurement rationales. The process reached the award and contract stage, with the contract being signed on 31 January 2026. The delivery location for the equipment is within the UKM region, specifically Holytown, North Lanarkshire.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses within the environmental and laboratory equipment sectors, particularly those with capabilities in supplying specialised measuring devices. Although the procurement method was limited, it highlights the potential for future opportunities with organisations like the Scottish Environment Protection Agency, which is responsible for regulatory and environmental management in Scotland. Businesses experienced in delivering high-quality, precise measurement tools, especially large suppliers with established frameworks in environmental solutions, would find this contract beneficial for growth and expanding their portfolio in the public sector.
