The initial phase involves a purchase of 2 units, while the subsequent phase for the remaining 9 units is expected later in the year, subject to funding. This procurement falls under the category of laboratory, optical, and precision equipment, with a total estimated contract value of £150,000. The tender process, conducted electronically, is currently in the planning stage and will close on 29 August 2019. The contract period is set to commence on 2 September 2019 and run until 1 September 2020, with delivery addresses accepting shipments globally.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for suppliers in the scientific equipment industry, particularly those specialising in high-precision laboratory equipment. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would find this procurement particularly relevant as it is designed to engage a diverse range of suppliers.

Notice Title

Purchase of Cold Magnetic Shielding for the Hi-Lumi DQW Crab Cavities

Notice Description

Lancaster University would like to procure 11 Cold Magnetic Shielding for the Hi-Lumi DQW Crab Cavities in two separate phases. Phase one is the initial purchase of 2 of the shields with an expected phase two (subject to funding) set for later in the year for the remaining 9 Cold Magnetic Shields. Phase Two pricing shall be valid until at least April 2020. This scientific equipment will be housed within CERN, Geneva, Switzerland. In order to reduce the electromagnetic power losses in the bare cavities, the static magnetic field from any source and, in particular, from the Earth's magnetic field, on the superconducting surface of the cavity must be minimized. For this reason, each cavity is enclosed in an individual magnetic shield. The magnetic shield is made out of material with high permeability at cryogenic temperature. Appendices B, C and D are drawings, Appendix E and F are the 3D models of the shield. You will find these appendices as attachments to this document. Additional information: This tender is being conducted electronically using the Lancaster University e-tendering system which can be found at https://in-tendhost.co.uk/lancaster/ To receive documents new users must first register and obtain log in details. Existing users should log in to the web site and express interest. Is a Recurrent Procurement Type? : No
