## Summary

The procurement process involves UK Shared Business Services Limited as the buying organisation, with the title "SSAPR19008 - 9 x Beam Current Monitors." This contract falls under the category of Electrical machinery, apparatus, equipment and consumables, and will take place in Swindon, England. The procurement method utilised is a direct approach through a single tender action, with a contract value of £278,089. The contract was awarded on 5th March 2019 and is set to run from 6th March 2019 to 28th June 2019. The initial tender period concluded on 24th January 2019.

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with capabilities in electrical machinery and diagnostics related to accelerator technology. Companies that can provide high-quality beam current monitoring devices with associated electronics may find themselves well-positioned to compete in this specialised market. The focus on safe operation and technical requirements suggests that businesses with experience in advanced instrumentation and safety protocols will be especially suited to engage with this contract.

## Notice

This is not a call for competition. There is a requirement to provide 9 off Beam Current Monitors plus associated electronics to the European Spallation Source (ESS) as part of the UKs in-kind contribution. The BCMs are a critical item for safe operation of the accelerator in terms of both machine and personnel safety and are an essential part of the beam diagnostic equipment for the ESS. The contract was awarded via the negotiated procedure using Regulation 32 (2bii) and (2biii) of The Regulations states "the negotiated procedure without prior publication may be used for public works contracts, public supply contracts and public service contracts where the works, supplies or services can be supplied only by a particular economic operator...(ii) competition is absent for technical reasons, [and] (iii) the protection of exclusive rights, including intellectual property rights, but only, in the case of paragraphs (ii) and (iii), where no reasonable alternative or substitute exists and the absence of competition is not the result of an artificial narrowing down of the parameters of the procurement."
