This project belongs to the goods industry category, particularly focusing on mass spectrometry equipment. The procurement is currently at the Award stage, with the contract signed on 4th March 2020. The total value of the awarded contract is £322,541.86, which has been allocated to Agilent Technologies LDA UK Ltd for the supply of the requested system. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in scientific instrumentation, laboratory equipment, and chemical analysis. Companies that manufacture or supply mass spectrometry systems, especially those who can demonstrate capability in handling complex chemical analysis within food safety and quality assurance sectors, would be well-positioned to compete in future procurement processes of a similar nature. Participation in such tenders not only fosters business growth but also enhances industry presence and gets a foothold in public sector contracts. ## Notice SASA requires a Liquid Chromatography-tandem-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MSMS) system for the quantitative and qualitative determination of multiple-pesticide and other chemical residues that may remain in or on various foodstuffs. The system must be capable of the separation, detection, identification and quantitation of hundreds of different chemicals present at various concentrations in a wide range of sample matrices, ideally in a single (multiple sample-batch) experiment i.e. simultaneous screen/confirmation measurements incorporating polarity-switching. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAR382553 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Quick Quote Award | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 4 Mar 2020 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 4 Mar 2020 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £322,541 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Not specified | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT | | Additional buyers | ACCOUNTANT IN BANKRUPTCY; ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL; BIELD HOUSING & CARE; EAST AYRSHIRE COUNCIL; FALKIRK COUNCIL; FIFE COUNCIL; FORESTRY AND LAND SCOTLAND; HIGHLANDS AND ISLANDS ENTERPRISE; KINGDOM HOUSING ASSOCIATION LIMITED; NHS LANARKSHIRE; NSS HEALTH FACILITIES SCOTLAND; ORKNEY ISLANDS COUNCIL (HARBOUR AUTHORITY); PERTH & KINROSS COUNCIL; SCOTTISH FIRE AND RESCUE SERVICE; SCOTTISH POLICE AUTHORITY; SOCIAL CARE AND SOCIAL WORK IMPROVEMENT SCOTLAND (CARE INSPECTORATE); SOCIAL SECURITY SCOTLAND; SOUTH AYRSHIRE COUNCIL; SOUTH LANARKSHIRE COLLEGE; WEST LOTHIAN COUNCIL | | Locality | EDINBURGH | | Post town | Edinburgh | | Postcode | EH6 6QQ | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM0 Eastern Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM01 Clackmannanshire and Fife | | Local authority | Fife | | Electoral ward | Glenrothes West and Kinglassie | | Westminster constituency | Glenrothes and Mid Fife | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 51 | | Supplier names | ; ADDACTION; AGILENT TECHNOLOGIES; AGRIGEM; ANDERSON STRATHERN; ASA RECRUITMENT (QUICK QUOTES; AZZURRO; BARR PRINTERS; BUSHWEAR; CASTLEVIEW PLANT; CMS CAMERON MCKENNA NABARRO OLSWANG; COMMUNICATE; DFFC; DUNCAN WEMYSS; ENVA ORGANICS RECYCLING; ERIC BOYD FORESTRY; ERNST & YOUNG LLP (EY; EVERWARM; FORTRESS SECURITY; G.A.HELMORE; GALLOWAY DRAINAGE SUPPLIES; GLENLUCE GUNROOM; GRANT THORNTON; GTR CONTRACTS; HAMISH BELL ASSOCIATES; HARPER MACLEOD; HARVEY NASH; HENDERSON LOGGIE; JOHN REDPATH ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR; LORIEN RESOURCING; MACDUFF SHIPYARDS; MALCOLM HUGHES LAND SURVEYORS; MAM CONTRACTING; MORTON FRASER; MR SPARKLES; MTBSKILLS; MURRAY FORESTRY; NATIONAL MILK LABORATORIES; PHS GROUP; PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS; R MACLEOD & SON; RESPONSE BUILDING MAINTENANCE SERVICES (SCOTLAND; RYDEN; SCOTLAND'S BRAVEST MANUFACTURING; SCOTT YOUNG AND SONS; SIBCAS; SPG FIRE & SECURITY; TAC HEALTHCARE GROUP; VENESKY BROWN; VIRGIN MEDIA BUSINESS; WPC SOFTWARE | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 38 - Laboratory, optical and precision equipments (excl. glasses) ### Codes - 38433100 - Mass spectrometer ## Release History - 4 Mar 2020 at 07:44 - Award - PCS Notice - Quick Quote Award - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAR382553 ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://firescotland.gov.uk - http://https://forestryandland.gov.scot/ - http://www.aib.gov.uk - http://www.argyll-bute.gov.uk - http://www.bield.co.uk - http://www.careinspectorate.gov.scot - http://www.east-ayrshire.gov.uk - http://www.falkirk.gov.uk - http://www.fifedirect.org.uk - http://www.hfs.scot.nhs.uk - http://www.hie.co.uk - http://www.kingdomhousing.org.uk - http://www.nhslanarkshire.org.uk - http://www.orkneyharbours.com - http://www.pkc.gov.uk - http://www.scotland.gov.uk - http://www.south-ayrshire.gov.uk/procurement/ - http://www.south-lanarkshire-college.ac.uk - http://www.spa.police.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
