This procurement falls under the goods category and is classified as an open tender, currently active in the procurement stage. The deadline for submitting tenders is set for 25th February 2019, while the contract is expected to commence on 27th March 2019 and conclude by 30th August 2019. The tools will be utilised across various research areas within the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) remit, primarily for characterisation services excluding active nuclear materials. The applicable delivery addresses for this procurement include those within the United Kingdom and several British Overseas Territories. This opportunity presents a significant growth potential for suppliers specialising in spectroscopy devices, especially those capable of delivering sophisticated analytical equipment. Companies involved in scientific instrumentation, particularly those with expertise in mass spectrometry and the associated technical support services would be ideally positioned to compete for this contract. Engaging with this tender could pave the way for future collaborations with a prestigious academic institution and access to extensive research networks. ## Notice The University of Manchester (SHRL) wishes to purchase a ToF-SIMS tool that will provide the Henry Royce Institute (Royce) and the University with an internationally leading SIMS capability. The tool will be used to provide a characterisation service across the broad range of activities within Royce with the exclusion of active nuclear materials. Details of these, arranged into nine research areas, can be found on the Royce website: www.royce.ac.uk. The tool will also provide a characterisation capability to researchers undertaking research, principally within the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) remit which extends beyond that covered by Royce.
