UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH

This public procurement record has 1 release in its history.

Summary of the contracting process

The University of Edinburgh has completed a procurement process for the acquisition of two supercontinuum lasers as part of a highly interdisciplinary five-year research programme aimed at developing a fibre-based optical sensing and imaging platform for critically ill ventilated patients. This tender, titled "Supercontinuum Laser", falls under the goods category and is based in Edinburgh, Scotland. The procurement method used was an open procedure, and the contract was signed on 13 September 2018, with a total value of €56,900. The project delivery location is at the Queens Medical Research Institute within the university.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the medical technology and equipment manufacturing sector, especially those specialising in optical devices or imaging systems. Companies that can provide high specification lasers suitable for clinical applications would be particularly well-positioned to explore further contracts with the University of Edinburgh, as they look to advance their innovative medical devices for use in clinical investigations. Additionally, organisations experienced in interdisciplinary research and development in medical fields may find valuable prospects for collaboration.

Notice Title

Supercontinuum Laser

Notice Description

To conduct research, development and first-in-man demonstration of a fibre-based optical sensing and imaging platform (FOSIP) for detecting physiological and pathological events in the lungs of critically-ill ventilated patients. This is a highly interdisciplinary five-year programme which is manufacturing prototype medical devices for use in clinical investigations. Our first device has been taken into clinic and has been used in six patients. We are now developing a system with real-time fluorescence lifetime capability, again for use in clinic, and to achieve this we need to use a high specification supercontinuum laser. We wish to procure two such lasers: one for use in our clinical system and one for use in our lab-based system.
