## Summary

The UK Research & Innovation organisation has completed a procurement process for the purchase of a laboratory, optical, and precision equipment. The procurement title is UKRI-2429 Hesse BJ855, and it involves acquiring a third aluminum wedge-bonding machine to increase wirebonding capacity for specific projects. The procurement was initiated as a tender, with a total contract value of £176,394. The procurement stage has been completed, with the tender closing on 20th September 2022 and the contract period starting on 23rd September 2022 until 22nd September 2023. The procurement falls under the main procurement category of goods, and the procurement method details indicate "Other -". The buying organization is UK Research & Innovation based in Swindon, United Kingdom.

This procurement opportunity presents a chance for businesses specializing in laboratory, optical, and precision equipment to engage with UK Research & Innovation. Small and medium-sized enterprises are particularly encouraged to participate, as the procurement is suited for such entities. Potential suppliers need to ensure they can meet the technical specifications required for the aluminum wedge-bonding machine. The specific delivery address region is in the East of England. Businesses that can provide high-quality equipment and meet the required contractual obligations within the specified contract period would be well-positioned to compete in this procurement process led by UK Research & Innovation.

## Notice

The interconnect facility at RAL currently operates three primary aluminum wedge-bonding machines. Two, Hesse BondJet 820 automatic wedge bonders and a Hesse BondJet 855. The 855 is the updated version of the 820 which is no longer available. The two 820 machines are currently dedicated to the ATLAS strip tracker module and stave assembly programme whilst the 855 is used for a range of other projects. We are looking to minimise risks to the ATLAS project and lab deliverables by increasing the wirebonding capacity available for the ATLAS project by purchasing a third machine
