About
Babcock Land Defence Limited, acting as agent for the UK Ministry of Defence, awarded a single-source contract to Gemco Services Ltd for the calibration and repair of OM1500 and OM4500 Exhaust Emissions Analysers.
The contract, valued at £303,000, has a duration of one year with an optional additional year at the Authority's discretion.
The equipment is commercially obsolete, and Gemco was selected due to technical reasons, including its ownership of historical calibration data and a supply of serviceable spares no longer available on the open market.
The contract provides interim repair cover while a replacement fleet is sourced.
