The project falls under the category of industrial machinery and is situated in Manchester (postal code: M13 9PL), within the North West region of the United Kingdom. This tender is at the end of the tender period, which closes on 14th May 2018. The procurement method is an open procedure and is valued at £181,302, with a contract period expected to commence on 18th May 2018 and concluding by 31st August 2018. This tender presents a significant opportunity for companies specialising in gas filtration and purification machinery, especially those that are SMEs. Businesses that can supply advanced gas abatement systems or related ventilation equipment will find this a compelling chance to establish a partnership with a leading university engaged in cutting-edge research. The anticipated exposure from working alongside an institution renowned for its graphene research could catalyse further opportunities, particularly for firms engaged in innovative industrial applications. ## Notice The University of Manchester is Britain's largest single-site university, with a proud history of achievement and an ambitious agenda for the future. The University provides world-class research facilities and undertakes research of international standing. It offers students a wide choice of degree programmes and options, and excellent facilities and student support services. The University employs over 12,000 staff and offers over 400 different degree courses. It comprises of three faculties with 23 academic schools and hundreds of specialist research groups. The University's cultural attractions include The Manchester Museum, The Whitworth Art Gallery, Jodrell Bank Observatory and the Martin Harris Centre for Music and Drama. The University also operates a thriving conference and meeting operation including a hotel and conference centre. Further details on the University can be found at: http://www.manchester.ac.uk/discover/facts-figures/Background information on Project The equipment is being purchased for the Graphene Engineering and Innovation Centre ("GEIC") at the University of Manchester. The GEIC is a PS60 million investment which will establish a state of the art research and technology development facility for graphene and related 2D materials. Projects in the GEIC will be industry-led and will focus on innovation and applications, with the aim of accelerating research through to products in the marketplace. The GEIC will house pilot production facilities and characterisation equipment. It will initially focus on a number of the University's world-class graphene application areas: energy, composites, formulations and coatings, electronics and membranes. Given the world leading graphene research at the University, it is expected that all the equipment in the GEIC will be cited in high profile academic publications as well as underpinning industrial collaboration projects, thus giving the equipment a high degree of exposure. The GEIC will be situated on the North Campus of The University of Manchester, comprise of ~8400 m2 and has been designed by world-renowned architect Rafael Vinoly. It is set to be open in summer 2018. Equipment purchased before the GEIC building is opened will be temporally commissioned elsewhere in the University campus, typically in the National Graphene Institute, and then moved into the GEIC once it is completed.
