Summary of the contracting process

The UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) is seeking the supply of a crystallisation plate imager with MFI optics and associated services. This procurement falls under the goods category, specifically within the industry of laboratory, optical, and precision equipment. The procurement process is currently in the award stage and involves a limited procurement method, having proceeded without a prior call for competition due to the technical specifications being uniquely fulfilled by a single supplier. The contract, valued at £323,273, was signed on 22 December 2021 and the relevant delivery location is in Oxfordshire, UK.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in the supply of laboratory equipment or similar technological services. Companies that specialise in optical imaging systems or have experience in similar projects would be particularly well-positioned to compete. The successful supplier, Formulatrix Inc., indicates that the procurement was highly specific, thereby suggesting a niche market for providers who can meet the technical requirements outlined by UKRI. Engaging with such contracts may lead to further collaborations and growth within the research and innovation sector.
