The University of Bristol has initiated a public procurement process to acquire laboratory, optical, and precision equipment, specifically a Crystallisation Plate Storage Hotel and Imaging System, for its School of Biochemistry. This procurement is classified under the CPV code for natural gas and has an estimated contract value of £370,000, with a minimum value of £250,000. The tender was published on 9th February 2015 and had a submission deadline set for 13th March 2015, with the contract period running from 13th November 2015 to 13th November 2017. However, it should be noted that this tender process has been cancelled. The procurement method followed was an open procedure aimed at inviting competitive bids.
