Summary of the contracting process

The Centre for Process Innovation Limited (CPI) has recently completed the procurement process for "Test and Measure Equipment" within the Laboratory, Optical and Precision Equipment industry category. This procurement, classified under CPV code 38000000, involved sourcing small bench top test and measure equipment via multiple Requests for Quotations (RFQs) conducted from October 2024 to March 2025. The main procurement method used was a competitive quotation process below the threshold. The awarded contract, which was finalised on 26th March 2025, covers a cumulative spend with the supplier RDM Test Equipment Ltd, based in Hertfordshire. The contract period runs from 11th October 2024 to 10th October 2025, with deliveries to be made to the North East region of the United Kingdom. The total contract value amounts to £34,087 GBP.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for SMEs within the laboratory equipment sector to demonstrate their capability and secure future business with CPI. The competitive quotation process highlights CPI's preference for efficient and cost-effective procurement, making it an attractive prospect for suppliers who can offer quality goods at competitive prices. Companies specialising in precision measurement equipment, especially those situated within the UK, would be well-positioned to compete for similar opportunities and build a strong business relationship with CPI. The emphasis on SMEs indicates a supportive environment for small and medium-sized enterprises to grow and expand their market reach.
