## Summary

The National Physical Laboratory (NPL) is conducting a limited tender for the acquisition of a High Accuracy Voltage Calibrator, aiming to replace its existing Fluke 5700 model which has reached the end of its service life. The tender was published on 16th August 2021, and the submission deadline is set for 31st August 2021 at 15:00 (BST). The contract is primarily for goods within the laboratory, optical, and precision equipment sector, and will be executed in Teddington, London, UK. The contract period is expected to commence on 28th September 2021 and conclude on 30th September 2022.

This procurement presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in laboratory equipment, particularly those capable of providing precision measurement devices that meet or exceed the performance of the Fluke 5700. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, given the suitability indicated for such businesses. Companies that excel in engineering and technical innovation within the goods category are advised to consider competing for this contract, as it could enhance their market presence and establish long-term client relationships.

## Notice

The National Physical Laboratory [NPL] requires a new calibrator for work in electromagnetic measurements. The purpose is to replace one of the current calibrators (Fluke 5700) which are no longer manufactured and are at the end of their service life. The calibrator needs to be a plug-in replacement for the Fluke 5700 so no update to programs are necessary but the calibrator need to maintain and if possible, surpass the Fluke 5700 stability and amplitude of ranges.
