Summary of the contracting process

Liverpool John Moores University is initiating a procurement process for an agreement to acquire a GHG analyser as part of the PASSES project, a UK space agency funded initiative focused on monitoring peatland subsidence and ground surface motion in Southeast Asia. This tender falls under the goods category, specifically carbon dioxide monitoring services, and employed an open procurement method with a budget of £28,000 (excluding VAT). The tender period concluded on 1st November 2019, while the contract is set to commence on 27th December 2019 and will run until 1st November 2020. The delivery of the equipment and training is required before the contract start date, which is crucial for meeting project deadlines.

This tender presents a lucrative opportunity for businesses specialising in environmental monitoring equipment, particularly those that can offer lightweight, durable, and weatherproof GHG analysers suitable for challenging tropical conditions. Suppliers that are small to medium enterprises (SMEs) may find themselves well-suited to compete, especially those capable of providing a comprehensive package including necessary accessories and training. The possibility for additional funding for accessories allows for broader applications, enhancing the potential for suppliers to showcase their expertise in delivering tailored solutions for complex environmental assessments.

Notice Title

Agreement for a GHG Analyser

Notice Description

The PASSES project is a UK space agency funded project which will develop and verify an approach to detect and monitor Southeast Asian peatland subsidence and ground surface motion using remote sensing technology. In order to develop this approach and the user platform, ground verification of both subsidence and interlinking biogeochemical processes are being undertaken to contextualise data. Subsidence primarily occurs due to the drainage of peatlands with agricultural conversion. Drainage and deforestation also has severe consequences to GHG emissions and carbon cycling. As such the subsidence data will be linked to GHG emissions, land use cover, water table height variation, as well as soil chemical parameters in order to understand functional changes in peatlands undergoing these landscape-scale changes being detected from space. John Moores University (LJMU) is responsible for delivering the Malaysia-based verification data as well as the associated hydrogeochemical assessments. This includes seasonal GHG emissions data (CO2 and Ch4) from the core monitoring sites. LJMU require a portable, light-weight, durable, weatherproof/spashproof GHG analyser. We have a core budget of PS28,000 (excluding VAT) for the primary unit (inclusive of any additional accessories which the bidder may be able to include as part of the core package) LJMU may (but this is not certain) be able to release further funding for further accessories which would mean the system would have wider application, including for teaching purposes. 2. Summary of Requirements LJMU require a two part bid: 2.1 PS28,000 (excl VAT) bid - must include main unit plus batteries and charger, and any carrier system/harness This equipment must be delivered and training provided before 27th December 2019. If a supplier is unable to provide by this date , then LJMU would consider a short-term loan. 2.2 'top up' bid for accessories (up to PS15,000 excl VAT, over and above the PS28,000). Please include a minimum of: 1x Chamber, software, spare battery(s) and soil collar (if associated with chamber). Additionally could include tablet or similar interface, GPS unit, add on sensors (e.g. soil moisture, pH, temperature) and maintenance package/accessories. Unit must be able to run fairly continuously for a fill 8 hour sampling day (or have battery capacity for same) - then on repeat for a 2- 3 week sampling trip. The system should be able to cope with the high temperature/high humidity of tropical environment, and have a splash proof system for unexpected rainfall. Please provide total weight of separate components and total system weight for comparisons. Additional information: Please submit all correspondence pertaining to this tender exercise via the in-tend portal only, and not by direct email or phone call to the buyer
