This opportunity, targeting businesses within the X-ray devices industry, was situated in South East, United Kingdom. The procurement, initially active with an open procedure, involved a substantial amount of £300,000. Originally published on 7th October 2024, the tender period was set to conclude on 11th November 2024, with the contract period planned from 17th December 2024 to 31st March 2025. Notably, there were amendments to key dates, including an extension of the tender submission deadline to 18th November 2024. However, the procurement process was later terminated due to the unavailability of funds. This tender process represented a valuable opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in the production and supply of X-ray devices to secure a significant public contract. Such contracts with UKRI can significantly enhance the business profile, foster growth, and ensure sustained revenue over the contract period. The open procurement method implies a fair and accessible competition, offering a level playing field for all qualified suppliers. Businesses adept in delivering high-specification scientific equipment would have been well-placed to compete for this contract, had the funding remained available. ## Notice Text to be corrected in the original notice: Place of text to be modified: For more information about this opportunity, please visit the Delta eSourcing portal at: https://ukri.delta-esourcing.com/tenders/UK-UK-Oxford:-X-ray-devices./94P2735Z9T To respond to this opportunity, please click here: https://ukri.delta-esourcing.com/respond/94P2735Z9T Instead of: For more information about this opportunity, please visit the Delta eSourcing portal at: https://ukri.delta-esourcing.com/tenders/UK-UK-Oxford:-X-ray-devices./94P2735Z9T To respond to this opportunity, please click here: https://ukri.delta-esourcing.com/respond/94P2735Z9T Read: The contracting authority has decided to terminate this procurement, due to no funding available to proceed with a purchase.
