## Summary

The University of Derby has recently awarded a contract for the procurement of a fumigatable cryostat for their new Biomedical Super Laboratory. The contract, valued at £36,877 including VAT, will see Wolf Laboratories Limited supplying the cryostat, which is to be installed at the Superlabs facility, B Block, Kedleston Road, Derby, DE22 1GB. The procurement process, managed using an open procedure, started with the tender period ending on 17th May 2024, and the contract period spans from 28th June 2024 to 27th June 2025. This initiative falls under the biomedical equipment industry category and is located in the East Midlands, UK, focusing on procuring essential goods for scientific advancement.

This tender presents notable business growth opportunities, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) involved in the biomedical equipment sector. Businesses specialising in the production and maintenance of cryostats and other sophisticated biomedical devices are well-suited to compete for similar future tenders. The University of Derby's procurement process, which includes potential additional fees for maintenance and servicing, offers ongoing business prospects.

## Notice

The College of Science and Engineering are seeking to purchase a fumigatable cryostat for our new Biomedical Super Laboratory. The budgeted spend for all items would be PS57,000 including VAT. The items would not be required until March 2025 at the earliest and a purchase order confirming the order will be placed closer to the time. Installation would be at the Superlabs facility, B Block, Kedleston Road, Derby, DE22 1GB. We anticipate that there may be additional fees for maintenance and servicing and would expect this to be quoted for as well.
