Summary of the contracting process

The Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC), through UK Shared Business Services Limited (UK SBS), is seeking proposals for the supply of a Bench Top Multi-Sensor Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM). The procurement process is currently at the Award stage, having concluded the tender period on 23rd September 2016, with the contract period effective from 29th September to 4th November 2016. The tender falls under the classification of laboratory, optical and precision equipment, with an estimated value of £130,000, and delivery is expected to occur at South East England, specifically at postal code OX11 0QX.

This procurement presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in laboratory and precision instrumentation to engage with the public sector. Companies offering either new or refurbished multi-sensor measurement devices would be particularly well-positioned to compete. Additionally, as this contract is facilitated by a not-for-profit organisation focused on delivering best value, suppliers with a strong understanding of value-driven, efficient service provision are likely to align most closely with the buyer's expectations.
