## Summary

UK Research and Innovation, a central government public authority, has concluded a procurement process for CNS Isotope measurements, awarding the contract to Scottish Universities Environmental Research Centre (SUREC). The procurement process did not involve competition due to technical reasons, as only SUREC could supply the required services. The industry category falls under research laboratory services, with the procurement classified as 'below threshold - unknown'. The contract was signed on 18th February 2026 and is active as of 19th February 2026. The location for the procurement is the United Kingdom, and the gross contract value is GBP 15,000.
