## Summary

UK Shared Business Services Limited is currently engaged in a procurement process for High Dynamic Range Streak Cameras, classified under the diagnostic systems industry. The tender, identified as RE160382, aims to source two cameras initially, with a potential third unit to be acquired later based on evaluation outcomes. This open procedure will close on 16 January 2017, while the contract period extends from 31 January 2017 to 31 January 2019. The estimated value of the contract is £330,000, with a minimum threshold set at £270,000. The procurement will take place in Swindon, England, with delivery addresses specified for the items required.

This tender presents an exciting opportunity for businesses involved in the manufacturing or supply of advanced optical instruments and diagnostic equipment. Companies that specialise in high-performance imaging and laser systems, especially those catering to scientific and industrial applications, would find this procurement process well-suited for their capabilities. As the initiative supports small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), it encourages innovation and competitiveness, allowing such businesses to participate in significant public sector projects and potentially expand their market presence.

## Notice

We require HDR Streak Cameras that will be provided under the contract. The aim of the tender activity is to source two cameras and then once the evaluation has been completed and the pricing received, for a third to be purchased at a later date. It does not need to be the same make and model for both cameras. The importance lies in functionality and ease-of-use. A streak camera is an instrument for measuring the variation in a pulse of light's intensity within a given time and in this instance will be used to measure the pulse duration of ultrafast laser systems. It will require a high dynamic range to enable STFC to improve their accuracy for measurements and diagnostics.
