Description
A three-quote procurement process was undertaken for the acquisition of barometer upgrades for SIO Iridium-SVP drifting buoys, to support Surface Observations Operations. Of the 3 known suppliers in the market only one supplier was able to provide the requirement due to no supply available. Consequently, only one compliant quotation was received for consideration.
