## Summary

The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority has recently completed a public procurement process for the supply and installation of a laser system titled "Supply and Installation of a Laser for JET at Culham Science Centre." This procurement falls under the goods category, specifically focusing on lasers and related technologies. The procurement method used was an open procedure, with the tender period concluding on 25 January 2021 and the contract period running from 19 March 2021 to 10 January 2022. The procurement occurred at the Culham Science Centre in Abingdon, England.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in high-precision equipment and laser technology. Suppliers specialising in industrial lasers, measurement systems, and experimental tools would find themselves well-suited to participate in future tenders within this field. The award has been granted to Cyan Tec Systems Limited, suggesting that similar companies can adapt their offerings to align with the technical requirements and innovation sought by organisations like the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority in ongoing and upcoming projects.

## Notice

The purchased Laser System shall form part of the 'LID-QMS' capability. This capability shall deliver experiments measuring the fuel content of in-vessel tiles on JET. The technique employed desorbs fuel in the tile surface and co-deposited on the tile surface through localised heating. This laser induced desorption technique is paired with residual gas analysis techniques, specifically quadrupole mass spectrometry, to provide measurements of the quantity of fuel retained on tiles in the high deposition areas of the vessel diverter.
