Summary of the contracting process

The University of Exeter is planning a procurement process for an Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer in the goods category. The tender, tagged as "planning", has the ID UOE/2024/042/MB and is based on the legal basis scheme CELEX. The University aims to analyse environmental samples for stable isotopes of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen. Potential suppliers are invited to engage before the tender publication deadline of Friday 10th May 2024, 12pm. The communication of future notice is scheduled for 28th May 2024.

This tender from the University of Exeter presents an opportunity for businesses involved in the supply of Isotope-Ratio Mass Spectrometers and environmental analysis equipment. Given the University's focus on analysing a wide range of environmental samples, suppliers with expertise in mass spectrometry and environmental science may find this tender aligned with their capabilities. Suppliers should consider the University's requirements for the analysis of various materials, with particular emphasis on plant and soil samples, and their ability to support paleo-environmental analysis.

Notice Title

Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer

Notice Description

The geography department at the University of Exeter may have an upcoming requirement for an Isotope-Ratio Mass Spectrometer (IRMS), capable of analysing a wide range of environmental samples for stable isotopes of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and hydrogen.

Lot Information

Lot 1

The geography department at the University of Exeter may have an upcoming requirement for an Isotope-Ratio Mass Spectrometer (IRMS), capable of analysing a wide range of environmental samples for stable isotopes of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and hydrogen. The instrument will need to be able to work with samples containing very different concentrations and ratios of these key elements, and to be able to analyse both solid and aqueous samples. A particular focus is expected on the analysis of plant and soil samples, including extractions of dissolved organic and inorganic carbon from soils. The instrument should also be able to support paleo-environmental analysis of different materials and compounds. Ahead of publishing a tender for this requirement, the University would like to invite potential suppliers to meet with us to help improve our understanding of some of the various features, to help inform our specification and tender documents. In particular, we would like to better understand how your IRMS allows us to analyse isotopes on a wider range of environmental samples (including solids, liquids and gases) with different concentrations of key elements (including C, N, O, H). If you are interested in speaking to us about this requirement, please get in touch via the messaging functionality within the tendering portal no later than Friday 10th May 2024, 12pm. We will then be in touch to arrange a 30-minute session via Microsoft Teams the week commencing 13th May.
