This tender, which falls under the CPV classification for machine tools, is part of a grant-funded process and will be evaluated based solely on compliance, awarding the contract to the lowest compliant bid. The tender period is set to conclude on 22nd September 2017, with expected contract commencement on 6th October 2017 and concluding by 31st December 2017. The procurement method utilised is an open procedure, which allows various suppliers to participate from across the industry. This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in CNC machinery and engineering solutions, particularly those capable of meeting the specific technical requirements outlined in the invitation. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, given the focus on compliance rather than scale. Suppliers with expertise in manufacturing equipment for the aerospace sector will find this a particularly relevant opportunity, as the successful tenderer will need to align production capacity to meet aerospace customer demands. ## Notice A new CNC Turning Centre is being procured in order to align David Paull (CNC) Engineering Ltd production capacity to its aerospace customer's requirements. We are specifically seeking a new CNC equipment based on a twin spindle, twin turret turning centre which has a 65mm through-spindle bar capacity and can hold 12 driven tools in each of its turrets, with an additional driven tool machining power of up to 5.5kW. This configuration of the upper and lower turret construction provides 4-axis machining capability as well as other combinations available on either spindle. The opposed spindle layout should contribute significantly to cycle time reductions. The purchase of this item is part of a grant funded application process and therefore the procurement will be subject to grant approval of the project as a whole. We will compare tenders received on a compliance basis only and award the contract to the lowest compliant bid.
