## Summary

The procurement process is being conducted by the Defra Network eTendering Portal, which is acting on behalf of the Environment Agency. This tender titled "Condensation Particle Counters" falls under the air quality management industry category and is located within the United Kingdom. The procurement stage is complete, with the contract award dated 29th November 2016, and the contract period running from 1st December 2016 to 31st March 2017. The total value of the contract is £100,585, and this process was undertaken via a limited procurement method, specifically as an award without prior publication of a contract notice.
