Summary of the contracting process

The Centre For Process Innovation (CPI) has completed a public procurement process for the purchase of Electrochemical Characterisation Equipment. The procurement involved two lots: one for Potentiostat/galvanostat systems and another for Thermal chambers for testing of research grade battery cells. Bio-Logic Science Instruments Ltd and Binder GmbH were awarded contracts for the respective lots. The deadline for submission was on March 11, 2024. The equipment falls under the classification of Laboratory, optical and precision equipment and is part of the goods procurement category. The procurement process was open and followed an open procedure method.

This tender provides opportunities for businesses specializing in laboratory and precision equipment to compete for supplying electrochemical characterisation equipment to CPI. Potential bidders should focus on meeting the quality criteria as outlined in the procurement documents, with 70% weightage on quality and 30% on price. Businesses with expertise in galvanostat systems, potentiostat systems, thermal chambers, and battery cell testing are well-suited for this opportunity. The contract values for the awarded lots were both £750,000 and were signed on March 11, 2024, by the respective suppliers.
