## Summary

The National Archives Public Record Office is conducting a procurement process for three Phase One 645DF+ camera bodies, necessitated by the need to replace outdated equipment used within their Digitisation Services department. This procurement falls under the goods category and is classified as laboratory, optical and precision equipment. The tender was initially published on 16th February 2017 and the tender period concluded on 6th March 2017. Following this, the contract period will commence on 9th March 2017 and conclude on 24th March 2017. The procurement method was an open procedure, allowing for a wide range of suppliers to participate.

This tender presents a notable opportunity for vendors in the goods and photographic equipment sectors, particularly those supplying laboratory or precision instruments. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) may find favourable conditions to compete effectively due to the suitability criteria allowing their participation. Businesses that offer maintenance and support services in addition to supplying camera equipment may also gain an advantage, potentially fostering growth through ongoing relationships with a prominent contracting authority like the National Archives.
