This initiative falls under the services industry category and is located in the UK. The open tender process was initiated on 18th July 2017, with a submission deadline set for 15th August 2017 at 12:00 PM. The contract, valued at £45,000, aims to investigate the changes in correction factors for nitrogen dioxide, utilising a research organisation not directly involved in air quality monitoring. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for independent research organisations and consultancy firms specialising in environmental science and air quality analysis. Businesses capable of delivering comprehensive studies and possessing expertise in data trends related to nitrogen dioxide monitoring are particularly well-suited to compete. Engaging with this contract could enhance a company's profile within government studies and contribute to significant public health research, potentially leading to further contracts in this sector. ## Notice The proposal is for an independent research organisation (i.e. one that is not directly involved with the air quality network) to investigate the changing trend in the correction factors used for nitrogen dioxide PDT and the potential drivers and associated science that underpins the changes seen in the adjustments of the corrections factors. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The proposal is for an independent research organisation (i.e. one that is not directly involved with the air quality network) to investigate the changing trend in the correction factors used for nitrogen dioxide PDT and the potential drivers and associated science that underpins the changes seen in the adjustments of the corrections factors. The study should examine both the local authority chemiluminescence monitoring data and PDT data (raw and corrected) to establish trends and identify reasons for the change in the bias correction factors and identify any other anomalies with the data collection process. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=FEB308855 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 5 Feb 2018 | | Submission deadline | 15 Aug 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 13 Nov 2017 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £45,000 | | Lots value | £45,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £42,325 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT | | Locality | EDINBURGH | | Post town | Edinburgh | | Postcode | EH11 3XD | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM1 East Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM14 West Lothian | | Local authority | West Lothian | | Electoral ward | Livingston South | | Westminster constituency | Livingston | | Delivery location | TLM Scotland | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | AIR QUALITY CONSULTANTS | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 90 - Sewage, refuse, cleaning and environmental services ### Codes - 90731100 - Air quality management - 90731400 - Air pollution monitoring or measurement services ## Release History - 5 Feb 2018 at 00:00 - Award - PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=FEB308855 - 18 Jul 2017 at 00:00 - Tender - PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JUL289762 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=JUL289762&idx=2 18th July 2017 - FAQs - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=JUL289762&idx=1 18th July 2017 - ITT docs - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JUL289762 Inv of bias correction factors used by local auths to correct nitrogen dioxide pass diff tubes - The proposal is for an independent research organisation (i.e. one that is not directly involved with the air quality network) to investigate the changing trend in the correction factors used for nitrogen dioxide PDT and the potential drivers and associated science that underpins the changes seen in the adjustments of the corrections factors. - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=FEB308855 Inv of bias correction factors used by local auths to correct nitrogen dioxide pass diff tubes - The proposal is for an independent research organisation (i.e. one that is not directly involved with the air quality network) to investigate the changing trend in the correction factors used for nitrogen dioxide PDT and the potential drivers and associated science that underpins the changes seen in the adjustments of the corrections factors. ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/ - http://www.scotland.gov.uk - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000504740 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
