Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the Ministry of Defence, ISTAR, located in Bristol, UK, which has completed a tender titled "GB-Bristol: SBRI Challenge - Non Destructive Evaluation." This project, classified under Engineering-related scientific and technical services, focuses on developing a highly sensitive vapour detector for assessing hydraulic seals and detecting leaks. The contract was awarded for £77,100, with the contract period running from 11th November 2015 to 10th May 2016. The procurement method details are not specified, and the key deliverable deadlines include an intermediate report due by 1st February 2016 and a final report by 13th May 2016.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those involved in advanced engineering, sensor technology, and environmental assessment solutions. Companies with expertise in developing sensitive detection equipment or those focusing on non-destructive evaluation methods would be well-suited to compete. The opportunity is particularly favourable for larger businesses or those able to partner with voluntary or community sector enterprises, offering a collaborative approach to meeting the requirements set forth in the contract.

Notice Title

GB-Bristol: SBRI Challenge - Non Destructive Evaluation

Notice Description

Develop a highly sensitive vapour detector based on an already existing technology, that can be used to assess the state of hydraulic seals and to detect fuel and hydraulic fluid leaks. The device will be able to detect trace levels of vapours (part per billion) and offer a more precise and accurate way of detecting fuel and hydraulic fluid leaks. It would also help to locate a damaged seal that is about to cause a leak. The device will provide instantaneous reading of the detected level of the targeted vapour and will be portable and easily deployable. It will operate on a 'switch on and detect' basis, with little to no maintenance and no consumables needed, therefore will be very easy to maintain in working condition. Because the sensor is based on laser technology, it shall be safe to the human eye. Identify the spectroscopic requirements of the analyser (e.g. review the fluids / fuel composition,Identify the target compounds, Perform spectroscopic absorption preliminary measurements, select the lasers, Assess the stability of vapours of fuel Modify a laboratory-based analyser and integrate the lasers, Complete a demonstration proof-of-concept of the prototype and The work is to be undertaken in accordance with the SBRI application 59529-446169 submitted and held by Innovate UK for the Non-Destructive Evaluation programme. Key Deliverables are: 1. Intermediate Report: results and conclusions of Phase 1a (01/02/2016) 2. Develop and demonstrate a working prototype of the proposed system (02/05/2016) 3. Delivery of Final Report of all Phase 1 activities and findings (13/05/2016) Additional information: To view this notice, register as a supplier here: http://www.contracts.mod.uk/delta/signup.html?userType=supplier and search for the notice with reference 'GB-Bristol: SBRI Challenge - Non Destructive Evaluation'.
