## Summary

NPL Management Limited procured two AMARI Callbox Mini fixed wireless network testing platforms for telecommunications research and development. The package includes AMARI NW 200 licences, software for non-terrestrial network (NTN) testing, software-defined radio hardware, portable PCs, test SIM cards and antennas. It also covers technical support and software upgrades, together with warranties. The systems support testing, research, development and validation across 4G and 5G networks, including satellite-based communications. The work is for NPL Management Limited, based at the National Physical Laboratory in Teddington, and delivery is in the United Kingdom. This is a specialist equipment and software supply requirement rather than a general telecommunications service.

The procurement is complete and a contract has been awarded to Amarisoft. NPL Management Limited used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 21 September 2026 and runs from that date to 11 January 2027. Its value is €41,612.69. The award covers one lot and the contract is active. The purchase combines two testing platforms with licences, associated hardware and accessories, support, upgrades and warranties. No separate award evaluation basis is recorded; the route used did not involve competition. Amarisoft is the selected supplier for the full package.

For a supplier competing when this buyer next requires comparable capability, credibility would rest on supplying integrated 4G/5G network test platforms and the software needed to use them, including non-terrestrial network testing for satellite-based communications. The requirement demonstrates demand for a complete, ready-to-use research and validation setup: platform hardware, software-defined radio equipment, portable computers, test SIMs and antennas, backed by software licences, technical support, upgrades and warranties. Suppliers with direct access to compatible specialist products and the ability to provide the full package would be best placed to meet the requirement. The selected supplier was a small French company, indicating that this specialist supply was served by an SME. The buyer used a below-threshold direct award without competition, so future competitors should understand the buyer’s product and support needs and the procurement route used.
