## Summary

The UK Research & Innovation is seeking tenders for a project titled "UKRI-2107 BAS Ice Core Storage & Transportation," which falls under the services category, specifically focusing on storage and warehousing services for irreplaceable snow and ice samples from polar and alpine glaciers. The procurement is currently at the planning stage, with a Supplier engagement day scheduled for 25th April 2022 at 10:00 AM, allowing potential bidders to ask questions and propose solutions via a Zoom session. Interested businesses can register by contacting the buyer's team at British Antarctic Survey in Cambridge, with the project details accessible through their e-sourcing platform.

Companies capable of providing a robust inventory management system and expertise in maintaining clean environments free from contamination will be well-positioned to compete effectively. The potential for the project to be divided into two lots—storage and transportation—further increases the scope for various vendors to participate and meet the specific needs outlined by the buyer.
