## Summary

The University of Sheffield has awarded a contract for the replacement of safety critical gas supply panels. The tender, titled "Replacement of safety critical gas supply panels required due to age-related failures," falls under the works category. The procurement method used was Other - Single Source Authorisation. The contract value is £65,000, with a contract period from 4th May 2023 to 3rd September 2023. The tender was awarded to BOC Ltd, and the procurement process concluded on 3rd May 2023.

This opportunity created by the University of Sheffield's tender is suitable for businesses involved in repair and maintenance of plant works. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) would particularly benefit, as the University seeks to support such business entities. The tender provides a chance for businesses to engage in essential safety equipment replacement projects and establish valuable partnerships with the University for potential future collaborations in similar projects.

## Notice

The gas panels being replaced are safety devices essential for the safe operation of the Nanoscience Facility. Without these replacement systems the facility will be forced to shut within 2 to 3 months, and there is therefore insufficient time to carry out a tendering exercise.
