The procurement, classified under "Machines and apparatus for testing and measuring," was conducted through an open procedure in compliance with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The tender period ended on 16 August 2019, with the contract set to run from 8 October 2019 to 7 October 2020, at the AMRC North West located in Rotherham, Yorkshire and the Humber. Following the evaluation, the contract was awarded to Renishaw Plc effective from 1 October 2019. This tender represents a lucrative opportunity for businesses in the industrial machinery sector, particularly those specialising in precision measurement and testing equipment. Suppliers that can offer long-term support, including application engineering, CMM programming, and software upgrades would be well-positioned to compete. The emphasis on engaging local industries indicates a preference for regional suppliers who can contribute to manufacturing solutions, making this a particularly appealing opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) in the area. ## Notice Scope of Requirement The AMRC North West has a requirement to engage with local industries in the region and provide solutions to manufacturing challenges. As part of that remit, there is a need to purchase a CMM to support the manufacturing projects. The AMRC North West is also undertaking research within various manufacturing topics in the aerospace sector, specifically in the area of dimensional metrology of additively manufactured parts. Within the facility there will be various manufacturing technologies and the CMM will be focused on undertaking measurement in support of this research. This specification is aimed at purchasing a single CMM for use at the AMRC North West. It is expected that suppliers will provide long term support for the equipment including application engineering, CMM programming and software upgrades.
