This opportunity falls within the goods category, specifically electronic and electrotechnical supplies, with a estimated value of £200,000 and a minimum value set at £150,000. The tender is open for submissions until 29 May 2020. The contract, if awarded, is expected to commence on 2 November 2020 and conclude on 1 November 2022. Interested suppliers can apply via the HE Portal, located at Coldharbour Lane, Bristol, United Kingdom.

This tender presents a significant growth opportunity for businesses specializing in the development and integration of cyber-physical systems, particularly those with experience in supplying similar solutions to higher education institutions. Enterprises that can demonstrate recent case studies illustrating their capabilities in integrating automated technologies and digital twin modelling are well-positioned to compete for this contract. This procurement process is classified as an open procedure, which encourages a wide range of providers to submit proposals, thereby fostering competition and innovation in the market.

## Notice

The University requires an Industry 4.0 Cyber-Physical System with the integration of up to 8 stations. The system needs to include a fully integrated automated guided vehicle (AGV) for transportation, hence enabling the 8 station system to be split up into two islands of 4 stations if required. The full system should be supplied by a single supplier who can demonstrate recent case studies of similar integrated systems within other higher education institutions. The supplier must demonstrate that the system has already been developed to facilitate digital twin modelling on industry standard software platforms.
