The procurement process is at the award stage, with a contract value of GBP 765,400. The tender deadline was on 13th January 2023, and the contract period is from 2nd October 2023 to 15th July 2024. This procurement opportunity presents a chance for businesses in the laboratory, optical, and precision equipment industry to compete for a contract with a significant value. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are encouraged to participate. The University of Sheffield is actively seeking suppliers capable of providing turnkey solutions for the required equipment, offering potential for extended warranties and service contracts to add value to their bids. ## Notice Quotations are required for 1 off of each RIE and ICP, in two separate lots, with the specifications detailed within the tender document. At present the likelihood is that only one item will be purchased, hence the title of this exercise being on an and/or basis. Suppliers should include all costs associated with a 'turn key' solution, i.e., supply, delivery, installation, commissioning, process verification and training, including all import duties, etc. Where possible training for technical staff in preventative maintenance operations should be included. Suppliers should consider adding value to their quotations, e.g. through extended warranties and service contracts. This tender is designed to seek response for the purchase of a Reactive Ion Etcher (RIE) or, a one off Inductively Coupled Plasma Reactive Ion Etcher (ICPRIE) and it is highly unlikely that we will be in a position to purchase both items.
