What happened
Department for Science, Innovation & Technology awarded this contract to LGC Limited worth £36,820,006 on 10 Aug 2026. The contract runs until 31 Mar 2029.
Description
DSIT conducted National Measurement System (NMS) Programme market engagement activities from 20th August 2025 to 3rd September 2025 during which no alternative suppliers expressed an interest in delivering one of the proposed 9 separate NMS programmes in their entirety.
DSIT therefore took the decision to retain the existing, aggregated contract structure of NMS for the multi-year Phase 2 contracts, in order to drive operational efficiencies, reduce administrative overheads, and create additional capacity with which to address wider business needs.
Future NMS Programme iterations will conduct similar market engagement opportunities to explore the market’s appetite to deliver all, or some, of the NMS programmes.
