## Summary

The University of the West of England bought PC USB oscilloscopes for delivery in the South West of England. The requirement was for Analog Discovery 3 Series equipment, part number 410-435, comprising two analogue channels, 30 MHz bandwidth and 125 MSPS sampling, with an 11.7 ns specification. This is a goods procurement in the oscilloscopes category (CPV 38342000). The equipment is intended for the university’s procurement operation at its Frenchay Campus in Bristol, with delivery to the South West. The requirement is therefore relevant to manufacturers, authorised distributors and specialist laboratory or electronic test-equipment suppliers able to provide the specified PC-connected instruments.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Onecall on 7 July 2026. The awarded value was £25,651.89 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract ran from 8 July 2026 to 9 July 2026. The tender submission deadline was 7 July 2026 at 5pm. The route was recorded as “Other - BVS”, rather than a standard open, selective, limited or direct method. The published procurement category was goods, and the tender’s estimated value was also £25,651.89. Onecall was the sole named awarded supplier. The opportunity was assessed as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates a defined requirement from the University of the West of England for specialist PC-connected electronic test equipment, bought as a single supply at institutional scale. A credible future competitor would need reliable access to the Analog Discovery 3 Series or an exactly compliant equivalent, including the specified analogue channels, bandwidth, sampling rate and timing performance. Manufacturer authorisation, dependable sourcing, product knowledge and the capacity to supply multiple instruments as one order would strengthen competitiveness. Suppliers should also be able to support accurate technical specification matching, delivery to the South West and straightforward fulfilment for a university buyer. The recorded buyer assessment favoured larger suppliers rather than SMEs or VCSEs.
