The procurement method is open procedure, and the current stage of this process is active, following an initial announcement made on August 14, 2019, with a submission deadline of September 4, 2019, at 13:00. Notably, the tender involves three distinct lots, with an individual contract value of £50,000 each for gases like Nitrogen, Helium, and Argon, among others. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the chemical and environmental protection sectors, particularly those specialising in the supply of laboratory gases and related services. Companies with experience in handling compressed gases or those equipped to cater to chemical analysis requirements would be particularly well-suited to participate. The open nature of the procurement ensures a level playing field, encouraging diversity among bidders and fostering business growth within the scientific and environmental services ecosystem. ## Notice SEPA has a requirement for Cylinder Gases, Specialist Gas Mixtures and Cryogenic Gases for use in SEPA Laboratories. ### Lot Information Cylinder Gases Provision of Compressed Cylinder Gases: Nitrogen, Helium, Oxygen and Argon Provision of Conventional Cylinder Gases: Helium, Oxygen, OFN, Argon Specialist Gases Range of Specialist Gas Mixtures: Landfill Check Gas Methane - Reagent Gas used for Chemical Ionisation Mass Spectrometry Analysis Other Specialist gas mixtures required for field analytical work Cryogenic Gases Provision of Cryogenic Gases Argon and Oxygen Free Nitrogen (OFN). Argon will be used for ICP-MS and ICP-OES instrumentation Nitrogen will be used for sample preparation work, GC instrumentation and XRF instrumentation. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=SEP428953 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 29 Sep 2021 | | Submission deadline | 4 Sep 2019 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 30 Apr 2020 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £50,000 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SCOTTISH ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION AGENCY | | Locality | STIRLING | | Post town | Falkirk and Stirling | | Postcode | FK9 4TZ | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM0 Eastern Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM02 Perth and Kinross, and Stirling | | Local authority | Stirling | | Electoral ward | Stirling North | | Westminster constituency | Stirling and Strathallan | | Delivery location | TLM Scotland | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | AIR PRODUCTS | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 24 - Chemical products - 44 - Construction structures and materials; auxiliary products to construction (except electric apparatus) ### Codes - 24111000 - Hydrogen, argon, rare gases, nitrogen and oxygen - 24111200 - Rare gases - 44612100 - Gas cylinders - 44612200 - Gas tanks ## Release History - 29 Sep 2021 at 00:00 - Award - PCS Notice - Website Contract Award Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=SEP428953 - 14 Aug 2019 at 00:00 - Tender - PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG363191 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG363191&idx=1 14th August 2019 - Invitation to Tender - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG363191&idx=2 14th August 2019 - Terms and Condition for the provision of Goods and Related Services - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG363191&idx=3 14th August 2019 - Pricing Schedule: Cylinder Gases - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG363191&idx=4 14th August 2019 - Pricing Schedule: Specialist Gases - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=AUG363191&idx=5 14th August 2019 - Pricing Schedule: Cryogenic Gases - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG363191 Provision of Laboratory Gases - SEPA has a requirement for Cylinder Gases, Specialist Gas Mixtures and Cryogenic Gases for use in SEPA Laboratories. - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=SEP428953 Provision of Laboratory Gases - SEPA has a requirement for Cylinder Gases, Specialist Gas Mixtures and Cryogenic Gases for use in SEPA Laboratories. ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk - http://www.sepa.org.uk - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000594464 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
