## Summary

The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) has awarded a contract to RINA Tech UK Limited for the testing of product samples to ensure compliance with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Regulations. The project will span an initial term of five months, with the possibility of extension for an additional nineteen months, culminating in a potential total contract duration of twenty-four months. The project falls under the technical testing, analysis, and consultancy services industry, with a total contract value of £585,150. The contractual period is set to begin on 6th October 2020 and end on 5th October 2022.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in technical testing and consultancy services, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Companies that provide expertise in compliance testing for electrical and electronic equipment, as well as those experienced in the RoHS regulations, would be well-positioned to compete in future tenders of a similar nature. With increasing emphasis on regulatory compliance, businesses in this sector can leverage such opportunities to expand their service offerings and tap into new marketplaces.
