## Summary

The University of St Andrews is currently engaged in a procurement process for the supply and installation of a new Nitrogen Generator to enhance its School of Physics and Astronomy facilities. This project falls under the education sector and is located in St Andrews, UK. The tender process has been initiated using an open procedure, and the contract has been awarded to CPA Engineered Solutions, with a total value of £33,092.45. The contract was signed on 1st September 2017, and the procurement process is now complete, having met its initial requirements.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in engineering solutions, specifically those focused on scientific and educational equipment. Companies that are manufacturers or suppliers of nitrogen generators and related technologies will find this procurement particularly relevant, as the project entails not only the installation of new equipment but also the removal of existing infrastructure. Those with experience in the education sector or working with public institutions may have a competitive advantage in engaging with future opportunities stemming from similar initiatives within the University of St Andrews and comparable organisations.

## Notice

The School of Physics and Astronomy require a new Nitrogen Generator, to be installed in the basement level of the building in the Cryogenics area, which will replace an existing small Nitrogen Generator located elsewhere in the building, along with numerous nitrogen cylinders located at various locations. The new generator will supply the required amount of Nitrogen to facilitate all the current needs of the Department, with a future expansion allowance of approx. 25%.
