## Notice

Located on the Harwell Science and Innovation Campus in Oxfordshire, Diamond is a leading-edge facility for science, engineering, and innovation. It is the largest science facility to be built in the UK for 40 years and produces ultra-violet, infra-red and X-ray beams of exceptional brightness. Diamond allows researchers from academia and industry to investigate the structure and behaviour of the world around us at the atomic and molecular level. To continue delivering the world-changing science that Diamond enables, the facility is being upgraded to Diamond-II, a co-ordinated programme of development that combines a major machine upgrade with new instruments and complementary improvements to optics, detectors, sample environment and delivery capabilities, and computing, as well as integrated correlative methods. This will be transformative in speed and spatial resolution and will offer users streamlined access to enhanced instruments for life and physical science. Diamonds Electron Beam Position Monitors (EBPM)s are used to monitor the transverse position of the electron beam as it travels through the accelerator. The purpose of the EBPMs is to accurately determine the position of the electron beam produced in the Diamond accelerator. Each EBPM consists of four button pickups. The D-II upgrade includes new vacuum vessels which also requires the manufacdture of new EBPM buttons. This contract is for the manufacture of Diamond's EBPM buttons. The scope of the contract is to - develope and validate a cost-effective button design based on the provided Diamond drawings and specifications and validation testing of button design. - produce new EBPM buttons for installation into the new vacuum vessels. - supply Diamond with drawings, and the requested number of buttons conforming to the agreed specification. A Quantity of 2000 series production EBPM buttons will need to be supplied.
