## Summary

The procurement process involves the UNIVERSITY OF NOTTINGHAM (THE) seeking to procure a Nano-LC system to enhance their mass spectrometry and sampling devices. This contract falls under the goods category, specifically in the industry of chromatographs. The procurement was conducted through a direct method known as a single tender action, which was initiated with the tender period ending on 27 April 2022. The awarded contract, valued at £69,719.08, began on 28 April 2022, and the physical delivery of the system is to take place in the East Midlands region of England.

This tender presents considerable opportunities for businesses focused on the supply of laboratory equipment, particularly those specialising in chromatography technology. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that offer innovative solutions or integrated systems that complement existing mass spectrometry capabilities would be well-suited to compete. With the contract already awarded to Thermo Fisher Scientific, businesses in this sector may still benefit by exploring similar future tenders or seeking partnerships to enhance their offerings in public procurement contexts.
