## Summary

The procurement process awarded on 4th July 2022 by Sunderland College focuses on the provision of a Universal Material Tester (20Kn). Classified under the industry category of miscellaneous special-purpose machinery, this tender process utilised an open procurement method. The contract will run from 5th July 2022 to 1st January 2023 and the delivery addresses for this equipment span across various regions including the UK and British Overseas Territories, with the tender period officially concluding on 16th June 2022.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses in the educational and teaching equipment sectors, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) looking to expand their market presence.
