Summary of the contracting process

University of Strathclyde, located in Glasgow, UK, has completed the procurement process to award a contract for the supply, delivery, installation, and commissioning of an Automated Dosing Platform for CMAC. This falls under the education industry category. The procurement utilized a limited method, because an earlier open tender process did not attract suitable bids, leading to a negotiated procedure in accordance with regulation 33.1.(a). The contract was awarded to Chemspeed Technologies Limited on 7th March 2025, with a total value of £293,760 GBP.

This tender represents significant business growth opportunities for companies involved in scientific equipment supply, particularly those specializing in automated dosing platforms. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with innovative and high-quality products may find similar opportunities appealing, especially when previous tenders have failed to meet criteria, and the contracting authorities opt for negotiated procedures. Engaging in such contracts with educational institutions can strengthen industry relationships and enhance business reputation.
