## Summary

The Defence Science and Technology Laboratory has completed a tender process for the procurement of laboratory, optical, and precision equipment, with a total contract value of £47,241. The procurement was executed through a limited method, specifically a competitive quotation below the threshold. The contract period commenced on 29th October 2021 and runs until 31st January 2022. Key details include the end of the tender period on 18th October 2021, with the contract awarded on 19th October 2021, located in Salisbury, England.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses in the laboratory equipment sector, particularly those specialising in precision instruments and optical devices. Suppliers with the capacity to fulfil stringent quality standards and those able to supply competitively priced solutions are well-suited to compete in similar tenders. Larger organisations, like Newport Spectra-Physics Limited, may lead the bidding, but there remains potential for smaller businesses to offer innovative solutions within this domain.
