## Summary

The University of Southampton has recently completed a public procurement process to source an Ultrapure Water System. The project involved acquiring a system capable of supplying ASTM D5127 E1.3 water at a capacity of over 2000 litres per hour for use in ISO 5 cleanrooms dedicated to Silicon and III-V semiconductor device processing. Notably, this system will be installed on the 4th floor of the Mountbatten Building at the University's Highfield Campus, located in Southampton, Hampshire (region UKJ32). The procurement, which was conducted using an open procedure, culminated in the awarding of a contract worth £625,000 to PureH2O Limited, on 14th October 2024. The procurement process moved through various stages, including a tender issued on 1st July 2024 and an updated tender with revised deadlines for submission and bid opening by 30th August 2024.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in water purification systems, particularly those specialising in high-capacity, ultrapure water solutions for advanced technological applications. Companies with expertise in producing and installing complex purification systems for semiconductor manufacturing environments would find this contract particularly beneficial for business growth. The successful bidder, PureH2O Limited, an SME based in Guildford, indicates that small and medium-sized enterprises with the right technical capabilities and competitive pricing strategies stand a strong chance of securing such contracts. The University of Southampton’s commitment to long-term contracts, including warranty and optional extensions, offers a stable engagement for suppliers.
