This contract, awarded to IGI Systems Ltd on 16th July 2021, involves providing goods classified under the CPV code 38000000, which pertains to laboratory, optical, and precision equipment. The contract commenced on 26th July 2021 and is set to conclude on 26th July 2022. This procurement was conducted through a limited method with competitive quotations below the threshold, with a tender submission deadline that closed on 21st June 2021. The delivery address for the contract is in Teddington, London, with the total contract value amounting to £44,969.75.

This awarded contract presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in laboratory equipment, automation technologies, and system integration. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly well-suited to participate in similar tenders due to the competitive nature of the procurement process employed. Firms that can demonstrate innovation in automated systems or have expertise in gas flow control technologies would be advantageous candidates for future opportunities with the National Physical Laboratory and other similar organisations in the industry.

## Notice

The National Physical Laboratory's requirement is for an automated mass flow controller system with vaporizer to be used in type testing facilities. The purpose is to deploy this gas flow control system in a programable and automated fashion, so the tests being carried out in the facilities can be run autonomously. The mass flow controllers must also be coated to minimize sample lost by wall reactions.
