| Method Rationale: | NPL is the UK’s National Metrology Institute, uniquely responsible for developing and maintaining national primary measurement standards. The project requires specialist metrology expertise and infrastructure that only NPL possesses, particularly in pre-competitive semiconductor measurement and standards development. No other supplier has the technical capability or mandate to deliver these services, and the work is foundational to UK innovation infrastructure rather than commercially viable for private firms. |
