## Summary

The University of Sheffield is currently conducting a public procurement process titled "Titanium Melt Stock Supply" within the aerospace industry, specifically focusing on the supply of titanium materials. This procurement is at the Tender stage, with the tender period closing on 24th June 2019. Successful suppliers will enter a framework agreement that allows the University to procure titanium electrodes and revert materials for their operations. The expected contract duration will commence on 21st July 2019 and last until 20th July 2020, with delivery expected at a specified location in Sheffield, England.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in the supply of titanium materials, particularly Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) that can provide the required specifications and certifications. Suppliers with experience in manufacturing or distributing aerospace-grade materials will be well-suited to compete in this process. Engaging in this contract could lead to a steady stream of demand, aligning with the University’s ongoing innovative projects and production requirements.

## Notice

We are now the UK's only titanium melting facility which is large enough to produce the largest variants of aero engine intercases and other structural aerospace components. Our demands are based on the various ongoing innovative projects and work we undertake. To meet our specialist production demands we require specific titanium material from an approved supply base who are able to provide the associated specifications, assurances, certifications and lead times. The UoS wishes to establish a framework agreement with a supplier for the supply of titanium electrodes and revert materials for use within the UoS titanium vacuum arc re-melter. This agreement will allow UoS to call off titanium products from the contract when required. The procurement documents are available for unrestricted and full direct access, free of charge, at: https://www.in-tendhost.co.uk/sheffield/ Additional information and tendering instructions can be obtained from the abovementioned address.
