## Summary

The University of Edinburgh is seeking to procure a motion capture system to enhance its School of Informatics, located in Edinburgh, UK. This procurement is currently in the Tender stage, and the proposal's submission deadline is set for 26 September 2019. The anticipated contract value is £210,000, and the procurement method is classified as an open procedure, allowing all interested suppliers to participate. The awarded contract will encompass a 360-day duration with provisions for potential extensions.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in advanced technology, particularly those involved in motion capture or similar innovative solutions. Companies with experience in delivering high-quality systems that meet stringent requirements, including technical certifications and robust insurance coverage, would be ideally positioned to compete. Furthermore, partnerships focused on community benefits and collaborative research with the University could enhance bids, making them more appealing to the contracting authority.

## Notice

The School of Informatics provides a fertile environment for a wide range of studies focussed on understanding computation in both artificial and natural systems. With over 450 academic and research staff and over 850 students, the School of Informatics at the University of Edinburgh is the largest in the UK and one of the largest in Europe. The School, and in particular, the Institute of Perception Action and Behaviour (IPAB) is now looking to purchase a motion capture system to track full body and finger motions, that can capture interactions between multiple subjects including the function to capture them playing two persons games, having conversations, and dancing together.
