## Summary

The UK Research & Innovation has completed a procurement process for a Micro CT System, classified under the microscopes category (CPV code: 38510000). The value of the contract is £363,900, and the contract period is set from 14 December 2021 to 31 March 2027. The procurement was awarded to Bruker UK Ltd after the tender period ended on 13 December 2021. This procurement is relevant to the goods category, focusing on advanced imaging technology within the UK and overseas, including the British Overseas Territories and Europe.

This tender represents an opportunity for businesses in the fields of advanced imaging technology, medical equipment, and maintenance services, particularly those that are small to medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies specialising in the development or provision of innovative X-ray technology solutions may find this contract particularly relevant, given its focus on non-destructive imaging systems capable of producing precise 3D models for a broad range of applications.

## Notice

3D X-Ray MicroCT Imaging System. Utilising innovative X-ray technology, MicroCT systems non-destructively capture 2D images, slice-by-slice, through solid samples whilst they are progressively rotated on their axis. Slices are then processed into detailed 3D models allowing not only see through a tissue, or organ, but also to see inside and make out object details as small as 0.4-0.5 mm within an entire undissected organism and make out sub-micron structural, spatial and volumetric detail. In addition we required a 4-year maintenance contract. .
