## Summary

The National Physical Laboratory, located in Teddington, England, has completed a procurement process for the acquisition of an Automated Chemical Separator. This tender, listed under the laboratory equipment industry category, was initiated through a limited procurement method, specifically a competitive quotation below the threshold. The tender period concluded on 29th June 2022, with the contract commencing on 26th July 2022 and set to last until 26th July 2023.

This contracting opportunity may benefit small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within the laboratory and precision equipment sector, as they can compete for similar tenders in the future. Businesses that manufacture laboratory automation systems, chemical separation technologies, or possess compatible solutions could find this a particularly advantageous context to engage in, as they align closely with the specifications outlined in the tender for improving efficiency and reproducibility in measurement services.

## Notice

A benchtop automated separator will be used to transfer existing and develop future protocols, which will improve the efficiency and reproducibility of the methods developed. This system will be beneficial for National Measurement System, measurement services, European research programme funded projects, and delivery of third-party work. The automated system will need to be compatible with commercially available ion exchange and extraction chromatography resins, tolerate both highly acidic and alkaline conditions, have multiple channels allowing simultaneous separation of multiple samples and radionuclides within a single run, reducing the number and amount of separation resins and reagents required.
