Summary of the contracting process

The University of Edinburgh has recently completed a public procurement process for the repair of a flood-damaged microscope, with the title "Repair to flood damaged Microscope". This tender falls under the education industry category and was executed through an open procedure as part of the procurement method. The contract, valued at £103,712, was officially signed on 25th September 2018, and the associated work is to be carried out in Edinburgh. The procurement process is now at the award stage, which signifies the finalisation of the contract with the supplier, Carl Zeiss Ltd.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those in the scientific and laboratory equipment sector, and firms specialising in precision repair services.
