Summary of the contracting process

The University of Manchester has recently awarded a contract for the procurement of an automatic film coater, crucial for depositing graphene and other 2D material coatings at the Graphene Engineering and Innovation Centre (GEIC). This contract, part of an open procurement process, was finalised on 22nd February 2018. The GEIC is situated on the North Campus of the University, postcode M13 9PL, and is anticipated to enhance research and innovation in various applications such as energy and electronics. The contract period extends from 22nd February 2018 to 30th June 2018.

This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses, particularly those in the fields of advanced manufacturing and materials engineering. Companies specialising in mechanical appliances for projecting, dispersing, or spraying—such as those producing spray booths and spraying equipment—would find themselves well-positioned to compete. Additionally, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may have a distinct advantage, given the university's support for local industry partnerships and innovative projects within the GEIC framework.
