The main focus of this procurement is on noise-measuring equipment, with a classification code of 38434300, which includes additional classifications for detection and analysis apparatus. The tender submission period will close on 11 March 2019, and the contract is expected to commence on 27 March 2019 and continue until 30 May 2019. This procurement method follows an open procedure suitable for contracts that exceed a specified threshold and is located in Manchester, Lancashire, UK, with delivery expected to various locations, including the United Kingdom and overseas territories. This tender presents significant opportunities for suppliers of electronic measurement devices, particularly those specialising in high-frequency technology and noise measuring solutions. Businesses that provide advanced scientific instruments or competitive electronic equipment, especially those proficient in working within the 140 to 330 GHz frequency ranges, will find this procurement particularly relevant. Enhancing their presence in this sector could lead to substantial growth, especially for manufacturers capable of meeting the specific requirements set forth by the University of Manchester. ## Notice As part of the work in the ESO project listed above, we would like to purchase the frequency extension modules that would be required to perform full 2-port S-Parameter and noise measurements using our existing Keysight PNAX (N5245A) in the 140 to 220 GHz and 220 to 330 GHz frequency bands.
