## Summary

The Ministry of Defence, Air Support in the United Kingdom has initiated a procurement process for the supply, repair, calibration, and spare parts of various aircraft weighing equipment, such as checkload freeweigh weighbridges and platform scales. The procurement method employed is an open procedure, with a total estimated value of £630,000. Although the tender was published on 9th February 2015, it is important to note that the process has been subsequently cancelled.
