The value of the contract is approximately £44,870, and the contract period will begin on 30th June 2021 and conclude on 31st May 2022. The initial tender period ended on 19th March 2021, and interested parties were encouraged to engage through an open procurement method.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in laboratory and precision equipment, particularly those with experience in handling radioactive or chemically hazardous materials.

Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, given the suitability indicated for this tender, potentially allowing them to establish or strengthen relationships within the nuclear science and technology sector.

## Notice

The Glove Box will be housed in the NNUF-EXACT facility at the National Oceanography Centre Southampton. The National Nuclear User Facility (NNUF) is a distributed centre of excellence in nuclear science and technology. NNUF-EXACT aims to provide an easily accessible, flexible state-of-the-art test-bed facility and supporting infrastructure for research, technology development / validation and training in in-situ, on-site and off-site characterisation and remediation methods including for complex / problem waste streams. The facility requires 'in-house' capability for the handling of radioactive or chemically hazardous materials. A Glove Box system represents best practice in terms of reducing the likelihood of operator exposure to a minimum, thus keeping exposures as low as reasonably practicable.
