Summary of the contracting process

The University of Edinburgh has successfully completed the procurement process for the "Sequel II System," which includes essential components such as the instrument, primary analysis compute, and associated software. This procurement falls under the medical research and education sectors and was conducted on a limited basis, meaning it did not involve prior publication of a call for competition. The procurement was initiated on the 6th of October 2020, with the primary delivery location specified within the Edinburgh region. The total value of the award is £471,000, and the process is now at the award stage, having received a single bid from Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc.

This tender presents a lucrative opportunity for businesses specialising in advanced scientific instruments and software, particularly in the fields of medical research and biotechnology. Companies with innovative sequencing technologies or those capable of providing high-quality components that meet the specific needs of institutions like the University of Edinburgh would be particularly well-positioned to compete. With the rising demand for such technologies, suppliers can leverage this procurement to expand their market presence in the educational and medical sectors.
