## Summary

The Scottish Government, through its Marine Directorate located in Aberdeen, has awarded a contract for the servicing of GC-MSD equipment under the title "Award of Servicing of GCMSD equipment (MS-P-0387)." The procurement falls under the service industry category with an emphasis on preventive maintenance services. The procurement process is at the award stage, with Agilent Technologies LDA UK Ltd being the successful supplier. The contract, valued at £18,759.9, covers the maintenance of three GC-MSDs at the Marine Laboratory in Aberdeen for a duration of 12 months, starting from 9th October 2025 and ending on 9th September 2026.
