## Summary

The procurement process involves the Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (SPT) seeking calibration services for its assets. The tender, titled "Calibration Services for SPT", falls under the services industry category and is located in Glasgow, UK. The procurement method used is an open procedure, and the process is in the award stage. Key dates include the contract being signed on 4 January 2018, with a total contract value of £35,000, and the services to be provided over approximately four years.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in calibration and maintenance services, particularly those with ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation. Companies in the engineering and maintenance sector, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), would be well-positioned to compete for this contract. Given the ongoing necessity for reliable asset management in public transport, successful competitors could enhance their market presence and establish long-term relationships with public sector clients.

## Notice

The supplier shall be required to manage the calibration process of the calibrated assets on behalf of SPT. This managed contract will be required until the end of life of the existing rolling stock and signalling system (approximately 4 years) SPT's Engineering & Maintenance department are required to deliver a safe and reliable train service. This requires all assets to be regularly maintained and repaired using calibrated tools and test equipment (calibrated assets) which require regular calibration. The objective of this contracted service is to ensure that all SPT calibrated assets remain compliant within specified tolerance ranges and calibration certification dates. 4.3 Appendix A. lists the calibrated assets SPT currently hold which require calibration; the supplier shall calibrate on a managed service basis all assets in the table.
