## Summary

The UK Centre For Ecology & Hydrology has completed a direct procurement process for the "Chamber Multiplexed System Package," which falls under the industry category of analysers. The procurement was initiated as a single tender action, allowing for the acquisition of essential equipment from LI-COR Biosciences. The procurement process began with a tender that closed on 12th July 2021, leading to a contract period from 19th July to 9th August 2021. The total contract value was £100,241, with delivery specified to Wallingford, England.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialised in supplying analysers and related equipment, particularly those that can meet the specific compatibility requirements of the existing systems from UKCEH. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find it advantageous to engage in similar tender opportunities, especially those that can provide specialised equipment or components relevant to environmental and ecological research sectors. The focus on collaborative funding indicates a strategic investment towards enhancing ecological studies, thus opening avenues for innovative SMEs to partner in future projects.

## Notice

This equipment purchase from Li-Cor Biosciences is essential as the project requirements are for two identical multiplexed Li-Cor long term chamber systems. One complete system and part of a 2nd system is currently owned by UKCEH Therefore, no other supplier can provide the necessary additional equipment (multiplexer, chambers, cabling and sensor arrays) to interface with existing equipment. This purchase is 50% co-funded by UKCEH and the grant award. Additional information: Compliant with 32(5)(a) - Additional Deliveries
