## Summary

The University of Plymouth is currently seeking tenders for the procurement of CNC machine tools as part of its initiative to enhance engineering research and education through the new Engineering and Design facility on its Plymouth campus. The procurement process is at the Tender stage, with the submission deadline set for 24 August 2022. This open procedure has a total budget of £180,000 and will deliver new CNC lathe and mill equipment within the contract period from 19 September 2022 to 31 December 2023.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the manufacturing and engineering sectors to engage with a leading educational institution. Companies that specialise in CNC machinery, education resources, and integrated software tools will find this procurement particularly beneficial. The initiative aims to foster an innovative environment that aligns with the needs of future engineering students, making it an ideal fit for organisations eager to contribute to academia while expanding their service offerings in a rapidly evolving industry.

## Notice

The University of Plymouth is looking to reinforce its reputation as an innovative centre of excellence for engineering research, teaching and learning. The new Engineering and Design facility (NEDF) being constructed on the western edge of the main Plymouth campus will provide a new home for the specialist laboratories and teaching facilities of the School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics and the School of Art, Design and Architecture. NEDF integrates a fully refurbished Babbage Building with a new-build, wrap-around area to create more than 10,000m2 of research laboratories and teaching spaces. New, state-of-the-art resources are planned that will enable engineering teaching and research to underpin the fourth industrial revolution and complement existing equipment.

New, state-of-the-art resources are planned that will enable engineering teaching and research to underpin the fourth industrial revolution and complement existing equipment. The new building and its physical resources will inspire the development of new inter-disciplinary activities in teaching, learning and research, and nurture the innovative graduate engineers demanded by future society. The objective here is to create a new CNC machining facility that will be operated by our team of highly-skilled engineering technicians. To this end, we wish to install a CNC lathe and CNC mill with tool room precision capabilities that are fully integrated with industry standard CADCAM software tools. The tables below outline the principal requirements for these machine tools.
