## Summary

The UK Centre For Ecology & Hydrology has awarded a contract for "Two high frequency, field-deployable and low power CO2/N2O analysers" to Aeris Technologies, Inc. The procurement had a total value of £60,349.42 GBP and was conducted through a direct procurement method. The contract period is from 31st March 2023 to 31st July 2023, and the tender period ended on 27th March 2023. The procurement falls under the "Analysers" category and is suitable for SMEs.

This procurement opportunity for high precision CO2/N2O analysers creates a chance for businesses involved in goods manufacturing or scientific equipment supply to compete. Companies specializing in field-portable environmental monitoring devices would find this tender particularly relevant. The requirements emphasize the need for instruments with specific capabilities to operate in field environments efficiently, offering potential growth opportunities for businesses with expertise in this niche sector.

## Notice

Aeris MIRA Ultraportable N2O/CO2 1hz gas analyzer w hardshell shipping case, tablet, rs232, 12V and 230V power supply 6.5kg Additional information: The requirements call for two high precision, high frequency field-portable and low power CO2/N2Oanalysers to operate in field environments. A single tender action is requested for the following key reasons: N2O Sensitivity: The instrument must be able to resolve N2O at the parts per trillion level. This requires that the instrument operates in the mid infrared(Mid IR)spectral range. MID IR based instruments such as the Aeris MIRA ULTRA have orders of magnitude greater sensitivity for N2O than alternative technologies utilised by all competing manufacturers. Field portability: The analyser must be weather resistant, capable of operating in humid environments(>90% humidity) and weigh no more than 7kg as analyzers will be routinely carried to and operated around remote field sites. 12 hr+ run time: No alternative analyser can satisfy the low power requirement and thus long run time required.
