## Summary

The University of Dundee is buying affinity resins under a term contract for supply to MRC-PPU. This is a goods requirement for resin products used by the receiving unit, with delivery in Dundee. The scope is a supply arrangement rather than installation, consultancy or other services. Suppliers should be able to provide the required affinity resins consistently and support the University’s ongoing operational need. The contract is intended for a single appointed supplier, subject to satisfactory performance and continuing need. Electronic ordering and electronic payment are part of the contract arrangements, and suppliers must submit offers in English. The procurement is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

The procurement has reached tender: the University invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. The tender closing deadline is 15 October 2026 at 12:00 BST. Bid opening is scheduled for the same time, and the evaluation period starts then. Bids must remain valid until 11 December 2026 at 23:59 UTC. The estimated contract period is 720 days, with an option to extend for years three and four where there is continuing need and satisfactory supplier performance. The estimated total value is £250,000, including one lot. Award is based on price at 60% and quality at 40%, covering account management, service levels, similar-contract experience, sustainability, added value and sample testing. Variants are not allowed.

This opportunity suits manufacturers, distributors and specialist laboratory-supply businesses able to supply affinity resins reliably under a term arrangement. The evaluation places greatest emphasis on price, but suppliers must also demonstrate effective account management and communication, appropriate service levels, experience servicing similar contracts, sustainable supply practices, added value and the ability to support affinity-resin sample testing. Businesses with established laboratory-product supply chains, dependable fulfilment and suitable technical knowledge are likely to be well placed. The requirement may suit both larger suppliers with broad product capacity and specialist resin providers, provided they can meet the stated service and testing expectations. Suppliers should be prepared to support electronic ordering and payment processes and to provide their complete response electronically in English.
