The University of Hertfordshire is seeking tender proposals for the supply and installation of an ultra-high energy laser system, specifically a Q-switched Nd:YAG model, through an open procurement process. The tender, entitled "Laser supply & installation," has a total value of £179,970 and is classified under the CPV code for lasers (38636100).
