This procurement falls under the goods category and is taking place in Swansea, Wales. The tender period ends on 13 May 2022, with the award period concluding on 27 May 2022. Interested suppliers should note that the procurement is being facilitated through eTenderwales, and all submissions must comply with the outlined eligibility criteria specified in the tender documents. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in the supply of laboratory, optical, and precision equipment, particularly those with expertise in spectroscopy devices. Companies with capabilities in providing installation services, end-user training, and ongoing technical support for high-tech instrumentation would be well-positioned to compete. Additionally, as the project is partly funded by Welsh government resources, there may be potential advantages for local suppliers and consortia wishing to collaborate on this innovative project aimed at enhancing semiconductor research capabilities in Wales. ## Notice The University's new flagship Centre for Integrative Semiconductor Materials (CISM) aims to further stimulate growth in this area by delivering a bespoke, integrated facility for semiconductor research and technology development. The GBP90M project includes GBP60M co-investment from industry, together with a GBP30M grant from Research England and will allow construction of state-of-the-art cleanroom and laboratory space that will accommodate new fabrication and characterisation equipment (due for completion mid 2022).The creation of a new Optical Laboratory will focus on next-generation optoelectronics, bioelectronics and related emerging technologies with the overall vision of creating a truly world-class research capability for Wales in this area. The new Laboratory will therefore require a range of electrical, optical, laser and photonics instrumentation and this procurement process is to source a suitably equipped supplier to provide the supply, installation, end-user training and ongoing support of a Transient Absorption Spectroscopy System.NOTE: The authority is using eTenderwales to carry out this procurement process.
