## About this tender

This requirement is for the procurement of Photomultiplier tubes for the SANDALS II detector array at the ISIS neutron and muon source in STFC RAL. The contract is awarded via direct award due to disproportionate technical compatibility requirements, as the components must integrate with the existing detector system.
