Rucksacks for England Ecosystem Soils Sampling Surveys

Description

The requirement is detailed in the Request for Quotation document, in Table 1. Where appropriate, for continuity, the requirement will specify a preferred make and model. Where the preferred make and model is an essential requirement for the validity of the field survey methodology, this will be indicated by the label '(essential)' in the requirement. Where the preferred make and model is desirable but not essential this will be indicated by the label '(desirable)' in the requirement. The authority will accept an alternative make and model where the preferred make and model is desirable as along as the supplier can demonstrate the alternative make and model meets the full requirements of this tender.
