## Summary

The UK Research and Innovation, located in Swindon, is currently engaged in an open procurement process identified as the "GB-Didcot: UKRI-1238 Multi Reactor System." This tender, which falls under the category of goods, specifically seeks to acquire a multiple reactor system necessary for conducting various deuteration reactions at high temperatures and pressures. The deadline for bid submissions is set for 13th January 2021 at 14:00, with the contract period anticipated to start on 25th January 2021 and run until 24th January 2024. The estimated value of the contract ranges between £50,000 and £100,000.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in advanced engineering, chemicals, or materials science. Businesses that can provide innovative solutions for multiple reactor systems or have experience in high-pressure and high-temperature chemical reactions will find this contract particularly relevant. By participating in this procurement, companies can not only secure a valuable contract but also enhance their profiles in the scientific research sector, potentially leading to further business opportunities within the public sector.

## Notice

The final date and time for submission of bids is the 13th January 2021 at 14:00 All tenders information must be submitted through the Delta eSourcing Portal Breif description of the requirement; ISIS pulsed neutron and muon source is a world-leading centre for research at the Science & Technology Facilities Council (STFC), Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) near Oxford, in the UK. Our suite of neutron and muon instruments give unique insights into the properties of materials on the atomic scale. The ISIS Deuteration Facility supports ISIS Users experiments by providing deuterated compounds for use within beamline experiments. The group is responsible for the synthesis of simple and more often large complex compounds. As part of our remit we are constantly developing new methodology for the deuteration of small molecules. Owing to the temperatures and pressures required for most deuteration reactions we require a multiple reactor system that will ease simultaneous screening of reactions conditions at different temperautres and pressures. *We require a multiple reactor system that is an integrated system that can simultaneously run multiple reactions which are conducted at high temperatures and pressures *The multiple reactor system must meet the brief and fulfil the minimal requirements set out in the specification. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
