## Summary

The University of Leeds is seeking tenders for the procurement of a SPR machine for determination of affinity and kinetics of molecular interactions. This equipment will allow for high-throughput, automated analysis of a wide range of molecules, from small molecules to macromolecules including proteins, DNA, and RNA. The total contract value is set at £250,000, with the deadline for tender submission being October 26, 2022. This selective procurement process, categorised under goods, involves a competitive procedure with negotiation. The contracting authority, the University of Leeds, based in Leeds, United Kingdom, is aiming to complete the full delivery of the equipment by March 2023 due to funding body requirements.

This tender provides an opportunity for businesses specialising in detection and analysis apparatus within the scientific equipment industry. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, with the University of Leeds emphasising that the selection of tenderers will be based on specified procurement criteria. The contract offers a 360-day duration, with no renewal option available. The successful tenderer must ensure compliance with the submission terms and cover the agreement under the Government Procurement Agreement (GPA). The University of Leeds has highlighted the need for an accelerated procedure to meet the project delivery timeline, requiring expertise in equipment for molecular interactions analysis and automation.

## Notice

The University of Leeds is seeking tenders for Equipment for determination of affinity and kinetic rate constants for molecular interactions, likely using SPR or equivalent detection. The system will allow high-throughput, automated analysis of multiple ligands and multiple analytes. We require the ability to analyse a very wide range of molecules including small molecules and "fragment" libraries, peptides and sugars, to macromolecules (including proteins, DNA, RNA and polysaccharides) and molecular complexes.
