UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Sheffield Hallam University, a sub-central government public authority located at City Campus in Sheffield, United Kingdom, is procuring TruPlasma Highpulse 4002 G2 HIPIMS Power Supplies. This procurement process consists of a direct purchase made under the legal basis of the UK's legislation (2023/54) without competition, categorised as a below threshold process. The contract amendment was last updated on 20th February 2026, and the initial contract was signed on 2nd December 2025, with the agreement set to conclude on 30th March 2026. The total contract value is 6,594,580 euros, and these goods are being shipped from Germany to Sheffield under Incoterms 2020 with a 12-month warranty included.

This procurement opportunity presents substantial potential for businesses specialising in scientific technical simulators, research, and testing equipment to expand their portfolios. Given the procurement method was direct, businesses with established relationships or demonstrated expertise in HIPIMS power supplies may be particularly well-suited for further direct contracts or similar opportunities. Large-scale suppliers with capabilities in constantcurrent power supplies are most likely to leverage such tenders, as seen with TRUMPF Hüttinger GmbH securing this award. For firms aiming to grow geographically, involvement in contracts linked to well-regarded institutions like Sheffield Hallam University could enhance their reputations and expand their reach across new regions.
