This procurement falls under the industry category of pressure vessels and involves delivering Pre-series and Production Vacuum Components needed for the Diamond-II Storage Ring assembly. The open procedure tender commenced on 21st August 2024, with the contract period running from 28th October 2024 to 16th March 2026. The total contract value is GBP 113,443.18. This contract presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in the manufacture and supply of high-precision vacuum components. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) within the engineering and manufacturing sectors, particularly those capable of designing, trialling, manufacturing, welding, inspecting, and testing advanced vacuum systems, are well-positioned to compete for similar contracts. The engagements with a prominent facility like Diamond Light Source can catalyse further business growth and partnerships within the scientific research and industrial innovation communities. ## Notice Located on the Harwell Science and Innovation Campus in Oxfordshire, Diamond Light Source (DLS) is a leading-edge facility for science, engineering and innovation. Diamond allows researchers from academia and industry to investigate the structure and behaviour of the world around us at the atomic and molecular level. To continue delivering the world changing science that Diamond enables, the facility is being upgraded to Diamond-II, a coordinated programme of development that combines a major machine upgrade with new instruments and complementary improvements to optics,detectors, sample environment and delivery capabilities, and computing, as well as integrated and correlative methods. This will be transformative in speed and spatial resolution and will offer users streamlined access to enhanced instruments for life and physical sciences. The scope of the contract is to manufacture a number of Pre-series and Production Vacuum Components required for the assembly of the Diamond-II Storage Ring, this will require several development activities, such as design, trials, manufacture, welding, inspection, testing and delivery to Diamond Light Source. Installation at DLS is not included. To apply visit our website which requires suppliers to complete a one-off simple registration form, which will generate a unique password for your account.
