The Formulation Business Unit have identified a need for an analytical capability to enable the integrity of opaque systems to be analysed for the presence of voids or delamination's with precision and accuracy. These opaque systems maybe coatings that are 10s to 100's of micrometers thick on metal, plastic or paper substrates applied as single or in multilayers. They may also be adhesively bonded structures, fibre reinforced boards, multilayer laminates or embedded electronic circuitry for example Renewal: 1 x 12 Month renewal FTIR Microscope CPI require an FTIR Microscope for applications such as detecting different phases in polymers, characterising the laminate layers in cross section, detecting impurities and inhomogeneity in films and coatings (inks, battery electrodes and polymer films). Mapping is an important function as often we are interested in statistical variations across a sample. We also anticipate using this to characterise the composition of formulated pharmaceutical products (e.g. tablets) Renewal: 1 x 12 months renewal ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=APR476926 | | Notice type | OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Large, SME | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 21 Apr 2023 | | Submission deadline | 10 Feb 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 10 Mar 2023 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | £450,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £700,000 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CENTRE FOR PROCESS INNOVATION LIMITED | | Locality | REDCAR | | Post town | Cleveland | | Postcode | TS10 4RF | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLC North East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLC3 Tees Valley | | ITL 3 | TLC32 South Teesside | | Local authority | Redcar and Cleveland | | Electoral ward | Dormanstown | | Westminster constituency | Redcar | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England) | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 2 | | Supplier names | CUPIO; PERKINELMER LAS (UK | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 38 - Laboratory, optical and precision equipments (excl. glasses) ### Codes - 38000000 - Laboratory, optical and precision equipments (excl. glasses) ## Release History - 21 Apr 2023 at 00:00 - Award - OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=APR476926 - 10 Jan 2023 at 00:00 - Tender - OJEU - F2 - Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JAN468504 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=JAN468504&idx=1 12th January 2023 - Tender Pack - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JAN468504 2689 - Supply of FTIR Microscope and Acoustic Microscope - Framework for the supply of FTIR Microscope & Acoustic Microscope and Aftersales to CPI's National Formulation Centre - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=APR476926 2689 - Supply of FTIR Microscope and Acoustic Microscope - Framework for the supply of FTIR Microscope & Acoustic Microscope and Aftersales to CPI's National Formulation Centre ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://www.uk-cpi.com - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000718693 - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/ - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/Default.aspx ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
