Summary of the contracting process

The University of Essex, a public body governed by law, is seeking a supplier for a versatile X-ray irradiation machine for studying various research areas related to radiotoxicity, radioresistance, infectious viruses, and healthy aging. The procurement falls under the goods category with a cancelled status. This procurement opportunity includes a 30-month service contract and is in the open procedure stage. The tender, titled "T956 - X Ray Irradiation Machine," was initiated on 1st March 2023 with the ID DN1397 under the CPV classification of laboratory, optical, and precision equipment.

This tender by the University of Essex can provide growth opportunities for businesses involved in non-medical equipment that utilizes radiations. The procurement process is currently cancelled but presents potential for future opportunities. Businesses capable of supplying and supporting X-ray research irradiator cabinets for biological studies, especially in the UK region of UKH3, would be well-suited to engage in this tender. Important dates to note include the bid opening on 2nd November 2022 and the end of the tender period on the same day. Interested suppliers may access further details and submit bids electronically through the provided submission method link.

Notice Title

T956 - X Ray Irradiation Machine

Notice Description

The University of Essex is seeking a supplier to provide a versatile X-ray irradiator to study radiotoxicity, radioresistance, infectious viruses and healthy ageing along with a 30 month service contract.

Lot Information

Lot 1

We want to bring to the School of Life Sciences an X-Ray research irradiator cabinet for biological samples, to support studies by several groups in the School of Life Sciences of the Authority, including: - Biology of long-term radiation toxicity - Development and characterisation of new radio-sensitiser drugs - Inactivation of infectious viruses for molecular studies outside Containment Level 2 laboratories. - Others that may be pursued in the future, with internal or external collaborators. To support this variety of studies, the instrument must have the following capabilities: - To produce a broad range of photon energies (from the low tens of keV to at least 300 keV, so the biological effects can be as similar as possible to those of 137Cs-generated gamma rays). - To control the current intensity of origin and the distance to source, to have a broad range of dose rates available. - To include several beam filters, to have different levels of 'hardness' of the incident energy spectrum.
