## Summary

The AGRI-EPI Centre Limited is currently seeking bids for a tender titled "044-1021OET Solar Induced Fluorescence Imaging Sensor Solution," which is classified under the CPV code for Sensors. This procurement process is in the open stage, targeted at supplying a sensor system that aids in assessing plant health, with a total value of £190,000. The tender submission period concludes on 30th November 2021, followed by a bid opening on the same day, with the delivery location set across the UK.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in agricultural technology, sensor manufacturing, and software development, particularly those with capabilities in providing ground-based and UAV/UGV sensor solutions. Companies that can ensure the provision of necessary support infrastructure, including weather-resistant enclosures and actuators, will be well-positioned to compete for this contract. The focus on innovative technology for plant health assessment aligns with the growing demand for precision agriculture solutions.

## Notice

Agri-EPI Centre is seeking bids from qualified and experienced suppliers who can provide a sensor to detect and image Solar Induced Fluorescence (SIF) to assist in the assessment of plant health during outdoor trials. This sensor is intended to be largely ground based when deployed with the possibility to deploy it on a UAV or UGV when required. In these deployment scenarios the sensor will be able to detect and measure the SIF signal in daylight. The sensor will not be provided standalone but will come will all software and support infrastructure required for successful deployment, such as weather resistant enclosure and a linear/rotational actuator. This sensor system will eventually be deployed with various AEC partners in multiple usage scenarios.
