## Summary

The procurement process for the supply and installation related services of the Liquid Scintillation counter by Nuclear Restoration Services Limited was completed with a direct award procurement method, which is aimed at specific specialist equipment available through a designated route. The procurement falls under the goods category, focusing on laboratory, optical, and precision equipment particularly for nuclear evaluation instruments, with the location being Warrington, United Kingdom.
