This opportunity falls under the industry category of Microscopes (CPV 38510000) and is located at Diamond House, Harwell Science and Innovation Campus, Didcot, England. The procurement method is an open procedure and it is currently in the Award stage, with the contract awarded on 22 January 2019. The contract period is set to commence on 23 January 2019 and conclude on 20 July 2020, with key deadlines for responses having already passed, including the initial tender submission deadline of 8 January 2019. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in advanced scientific equipment manufacturing and installation. Companies specialising in high-precision machinery and those with capabilities in electron microscopy technology would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Engaging with the Diamond Light Source Ltd not only allows businesses to expand their portfolio in scientific research infrastructure but also positions them within the forefront of nanoscience exploration and innovation. ## Notice Our technical specification details the requirements of the Aberration Corrected PhotoEmission Electron Microscope (AC-PEEM) and Low Energy Electron Microscope (AC-LEEM) for use on the Nanoscience beamline at DLS. The microscope will be installed on the nanoscience I06 beamline that is dedicated to the study of nanomagnetism and nanostructures using element specific probes such as X-Ray absorption spectroscopy and X-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The variable polarisation state of the x-ray light provides a contrast mechanism for imaging different magnetisation states in ferromagnetic and anti-ferromagnetic nanostructures. The contractor will be responsible for the supply of materials, manufacture, inspection, cleaning, testing, vacuum baking, assembly, packing, delivery and installation at DLS of the AC-PEEM/LEEM complete microscope.
