## Summary

Robert Gordon University initiated a public procurement process to purchase a Hydrogen Refilling Station test system for the School of Engineering at their Garthdee campus in Aberdeen. The procurement process, which falls under the industry category of Machines and apparatus for testing and measuring (CPV: 38540000), was intended to be an open procedure, inviting electronic submissions. The tender process underwent several amendments extending key deadlines, ultimately setting the final submission deadline to 30th August 2024, due to delays in providing answers to queries. However, by 23rd August 2024, the process was cancelled with the status marked as unsuccessful and discontinued.

This tender represented a significant opportunity for businesses specializing in testing and measuring machinery to engage with a prestigious educational institution. Suppliers of hydrogen refuelling and testing apparatus, particularly those with capabilities in flow loop and multiphase testing systems, would find this contract well-suited to their expertise. Despite its cancellation, similar future tenders from Robert Gordon University could offer growth potential for businesses that provide high-quality, innovative engineering solutions, emphasising competitive pricing to meet quality assessment criteria effectively.
