## Summary

The procurement process initiated by Newcastle University seeks bids for the supply of high-density electrodes, aimed at facilitating electrophysiological recording from the brain and spinal cord. This tender is classified under the goods category and is set within the medical instrumentation industry. The open procurement method allows for broad participation, with the tender period closing on 23 November 2021. The contract is anticipated to commence on 20 December 2021 and extend until 31 July 2022. All deliveries should be directed to locations within England, United Kingdom, and the total contract value is estimated at £230,000.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the supply of medical and technical goods, particularly those with expertise in electro-neurophysiological equipment. Suppliers, manufacturers, or distributors that focus on innovative medical technology and high-quality electronics would be well-positioned to compete in this tender. The requirements for advanced interfacing hardware and data transmission solutions underscore the need for companies with a strong background in engineering and electronics, potentially leading to business growth through successful contract fulfilment.

## Notice

The requirement is for high density probes, permitting electrophysiological recording from the brain and spinal cord. The probes should contain active electronics, permitting data from around 1000 recording contacts to be transmitted out of the probe along a much reduced number of wires. The probes need to be mounted in two ways, to be suitable for penetration into superficial and deep structures. Suitable hardware is required to interface to the probes, and allow data to be captured to a personal computer for offline analysis.
