Summary of the contracting process

The University of Southampton has concluded a procurement process for the "In Situ Incubation and Filtration System for the Pelagic Ocean (InSIncFS)" project, which involved manufacturing titanium component parts. This procurement falls under the CPV category for Titanium (14724000). The awarded contract, which is valued at GBP 37,396.8, required the delivery of the finished components to the National Oceanography Centre in Southampton, located in the South East region of the United Kingdom. The contract was awarded on 3rd December 2024 and is set to run from 12th December 2024 to 12th February 2025. The procurement was conducted using a limited competitive quotation method for goods, specifically targeted below the threshold.

This tender creates significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of precision manufacturing, given the requirement to produce high-quality titanium parts according to specific drawings. Businesses that specialise in metalworking, particularly those experienced with Grade 2 titanium, are well-positioned to benefit from such contracts. It presents a growth opportunity for SMEs that can meet stringent quality standards and delivery timelines, potentially leading to further engagements with academic and research institutions like the University of Southampton.
