## Summary

The Department for Environment Food & Rural Affairs (DEFR) is inviting tenders for the UK Urban NO2 Monitoring Network project. This project aims to enhance the measurement of NO2 roadside concentrations across the UK to improve local air quality reporting. The procurement method is selective with negotiation, and the tender period ends on 30th August 2019. The contract period spans from 17th October 2019 to 31st March 2025. The project falls under the "Air pollution monitoring or measurement services" category.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses involved in air quality monitoring services to showcase their capabilities. Companies with expertise in environmental monitoring, data analysis, and technology solutions would be well-suited to compete. The Department for Environment Food & Rural Affairs (DEFR) is seeking suppliers to contribute to this vital project, enhancing air quality monitoring across the UK and benefiting public health and the environment.

## Notice

Defra require measurement data for annual average NO2 roadside concentrations for major urban roads with relevant public exposure across the UK, to be delivered through a new national NO2 monitoring network. The primary aim of this national supplementary monitoring network is to supplement the current Automatic Urban and Rural Network (AURN) and Pollution Climate Mapping (PCM) model NO2 assessment at roadside locations where the difference between the national and local assessments is greatest, so that a more accurate local air quality picture can be reported to the European Commission.
