This tender falls under the goods category and aims to renew maintenance licences for CIVA software, crucial for non-destructive testing in various high-tech sectors, including civil nuclear and aerospace. The open procurement process is at the tender stage, with submissions due by 10 December 2021, and the award period concluding by 23 December 2021. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in software maintenance and technical support, particularly for those focused on analytical or scientific software within the engineering materials field. Companies with expertise in non-destructive testing technologies and those providing analytical software packages may find this procurement a fitting match for their services, enabling them to contribute to advanced research initiatives funded by the Welsh European Funding Office. ## Notice This specification has been produced as part of an initiative known as AEMRI (Advanced Engineering Materials Research Institute), which is funded by the Welsh European Funding Office (WEFO) using European Regional Development Funds (ERDF). AEMRI seeks to create a unique facility housing a critical mass of equipment, expertise and resources. AEMRI provides an environment to test and prove the limits of performance of advanced materials. Through the use of advanced modelling and simulation methods, full, large-scale mechanical test structures will be designed and built upon finite element analysis (FEA) calculations. Advanced, automated non-destructive evaluation (NDE) techniques will be developed with the aim of saving the industry time and production costs as well as minimising the risk of catastrophic structural failures.AEMRI will deliver the objectives of the project through the following four technical strands:-- Modelling and Simulation of High Performance Materials and Structures.- Advanced Robotic Inspection of Complex Geometry Structures.- Inspection Systems for Very Large Structures for the Green Energy Sector.- Nuclear Fabrication Research Centre.TWI use CIVA software for non-destructive testing (NDT) simulation, which will enable design and manufacture of bespoke ultrasonic arrays and eddy current for use in the civil nuclear, aerospace, and military sectors. There is now a requirement to renew all the maintenance licences starting in 2022 to cover upgrades and support service for the CIVA software (UT and ET modules) licences and the CIVA Analysis licences.
